About 2 Rose Cottages
2 Rose Cottages is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Bradfield Southend, Reading, Reading (RG7 6HF). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 788 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows an F (score 32), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 47). The latest certificate is from October 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since October 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 1996–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £389,000 sits 63.4% above the 2009 sale of £238,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2010. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
