Overview

About 218 Hyde End Road

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

218 Hyde End Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Spencers Wood, Reading, Reading (RG7 1DG). It has a recorded floor area of 102 m² (around 1093 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (August 2011) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The latest certificate is from August 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a self-contained annexe.

It hasn't traded since June 1998, a hold of 28 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £726,000 sits 263.1% above the 1998 sale of £199,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£183/sq ft) was about 47.2% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 102 m² it's 21.7% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (130 m² median across 10 EPCs).

How to read this page

Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 218 Hyde End Road is modelled from its 102 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale 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. 1 sale is recorded for 218 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 218 Hyde End Road was lodged in August 2011 at band D and expired in August 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. 2 applications are matched to 218 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
218 Hyde End Road is in council tax band F. 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.
