2 Clove Close, Earley, Reading, RG6 5GJ

2 Clove Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Earley, Reading, Reading (RG6 5GJ). It has a recorded floor area of 98 m² (around 1056 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (January 2009) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 66). The latest certificate is from January 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Held since August 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 98 m² it's 21.6% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (125 m² median across 5 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £533,000 sits 59.1% above the 2009 sale of £335,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£317/sq ft) was about 77.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2001. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
