About 16 Church View
16 Church View is a three-bedroom detached house in Beenham, Reading, Reading (RG7 5NL). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 797 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows an F (score 36), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The rating has held steady at F across 2 certificates since February 2015.

The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 4-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
