Overview

About 4 Boldrewood

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

4 Boldrewood is a detached house in Burghfield Common, Reading, Reading (RG7 3LR). It has a recorded floor area of 107 m² (around 1146 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (November 2008) shows an F (score 28), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 59), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from November 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in February 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £441,000 sits 60.4% above the 2009 sale of £275,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2014. Past consents include an extension, a garage conversion and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs).

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 4 Boldrewood is modelled from its 107 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in RG7 3LR. 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 4 Boldrewood. 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 4 Boldrewood was lodged in November 2008 at band F and expired in November 2018, 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. 1 application is matched to 4 Boldrewood. 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 3LR, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
4 Boldrewood is in council tax band E. 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.
