Overview

About 20 Dauntless Road

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

20 Dauntless Road is a five-bedroom detached house in Burghfield Common, Reading, Reading (RG7 3NZ). It has a recorded floor area of 158 m² (around 1701 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (May 2026) shows a C (score 74). When first surveyed in July 2013 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Very Good, window efficiency went from Poor to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

Held since August 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1997–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 11.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £719,000 sits 65.3% above the 2007 sale of £435,000. At 158 m² it's 26.4% larger than the typical home in the postcode (125 m² median across 29 EPCs).
