About 4 Skerritt Way

4 Skerritt Way is a four-bedroom detached house in Purley On Thames, Reading, Reading (RG8 8DD). It has a recorded floor area of 160 m² (around 1722 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band F. There is a swimming pool on the plot, uncommon for the area. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79).
