Overview

About Orchard House

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

Orchard House is a three-bedroom detached house in Aldermaston, Reading, Reading (RG7 4LL). It has a recorded floor area of 105 m² (around 1130 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (February 2015) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from February 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs). On the market in September 2015 and unlisted since — roughly 11 years. Today's modelled estimate of £493,000 is 31.5% above the 2015 sale price. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2015.
