Overview

About 16 Church View

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

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. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Good to Average. 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.

At 74 m² it sits well below the postcode median (107 m² across 13 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 85% of similar EPCs). 3 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £487,000 is 23.3% above the 2015 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£496/sq ft) was about 90.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. On the market in July 2015 and unlisted since — roughly 11 years.
