Overview

About 3 The Willows

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

3 The Willows is a four-bedroom detached house in Brimpton, Reading, Reading (RG7 4GY). It has a recorded floor area of 179 m² (around 1927 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007-2011 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (February 2026) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (February 2016); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 58). Main heating runs on oil. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

It hasn't traded since June 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 179 m² it's 23.3% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (234 m² median across 4 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £880,000 is 30.4% above the 2007 sale price.

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 3 The Willows is modelled from its 179 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in RG7 4GY. 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 3 The Willows. 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 3 The Willows was lodged in February 2026 at band E and is valid until February 2036. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 3 The Willows. 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 2 schools and 28 stops listed are measured in a straight line from RG7 4GY, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
3 The Willows is in council tax band G. 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.
