Overview

About 37 St Marys Avenue

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

37 St Marys Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Purley On Thames, Reading, Reading (RG8 8BJ). It has a recorded floor area of 104 m² (around 1116 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75).

Held since October 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales.
