Overview

About 13 Badgers Croft

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

13 Badgers Croft is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Mortimer Common, Reading, Reading (RG7 3SW). It has a recorded floor area of 58 m² (around 624 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band C. At 58 m² this is the 19th smallest of 22 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 52–61 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. Other recorded features include a balcony. The latest certificate (February 2023) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since January 2012. Main heating runs on electricity.

It hasn't traded since April 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 2000–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £178,000 is 24.9% above the 2009 sale price.
