Overview

About 1 Oakfield Cottages

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

1 Oakfield Cottages is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Bradfield Southend, Reading, Reading (RG7 6HP). It has a recorded floor area of 55 m² (around 592 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2013) shows an F (score 31), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 4-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from April 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

3 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
