Overview

About 9 Benson Holme

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

9 Benson Holme is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Padworth, Reading, Reading (RG7 4JR). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 840 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (October 2015) shows an F (score 29), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from October 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a basement. Period features are noted in the property record.

3 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
