About 1 Colebrook House
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
1 Colebrook House is a detached house in Goring, Reading, Reading (RG8 9AR). It has a recorded floor area of 54 m² (around 580 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (August 2010) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The latest certificate is from August 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
