Overview

About 19 Colyton Way

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

19 Colyton Way is a three-bedroom detached house in Purley On Thames, Reading, Reading (RG8 8BL). It has a recorded floor area of 155 m² (around 1668 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (February 2014) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (September 2012); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Average; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 1996–2013, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £569,000 sits 76.2% above the 2013 sale of £323,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£194/sq ft) was about 21.8% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2005. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 85% of similar EPCs). Last sold in November 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.
