About Tacoma

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

Tacoma is a semi-detached house in Goring, Reading, Reading (RG8 0AA). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (November 2013) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump.
