Lower Basildon View is a detached house in Lower Basildon, Reading, Reading (RG8 9ND). It has a recorded floor area of 337 m² (around 3627 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76).
