Overview

About 4 Hill Gardens

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

4 Hill Gardens is a five-bedroom detached house in Streatley, Reading, Reading (RG8 9QF). It has a recorded floor area of 348 m² (around 3746 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (May 2024) shows a C (score 73).

It hasn't traded since July 1998, a hold of 28 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 348 m² the property is well over the postcode median (188 m² across 10 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £1,566,000 sits 405.2% above the 1998 sale of £310,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£83/sq ft) was about 75.6% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2006. Past consents include an extension, a loft conversion and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
