1 Auclum Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Burghfield Common, Reading, Reading (RG7 3DY). It has a recorded floor area of 118 m² (around 1270 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band E.

It hasn't traded since February 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area.
