About 202 Hyde End Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
202 Hyde End Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Spencers Wood, Reading, Reading (RG7 1DG). It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 806 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. There is a swimming pool on the plot, uncommon for the area. The latest certificate (October 2011) shows an F (score 30), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 58), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 75 m² it sits well below the postcode median (130 m² across 10 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 1997–2012, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £696,000 sits 54.7% above the 2012 sale of £450,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£559/sq ft) was about 72.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last changed hands 14 years ago, in April 2012. Across the public record there are 5 sales, relatively high churn for a single property.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 202 Hyde End Road is modelled from its 75 m² EPC floor area, its 5 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in RG7 1DG. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 5 sales are recorded for 202 Hyde End Road. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 202 Hyde End Road was lodged in October 2011 at band F and expired in October 2021, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 202 Hyde End Road. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 6 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from RG7 1DG, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 202 Hyde End Road is in council tax band G. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
