About 18 Mount Pleasant
18 Mount Pleasant is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Beenham, Reading, Reading (RG7 5NU). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 797 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (August 2014) shows an F (score 30), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The rating has held steady at F across 2 certificates since October 2013. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor; while main heating dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 4-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from August 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views.
