About 19 Colyton Way
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.
