41 Clapton Approach is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Wooburn Green, High Wycombe, High Wycombe (HP10 0DW). It has a recorded floor area of 140 m² (around 1507 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 69), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since April 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 140 m² the property is well over the postcode median (84 m² across 30 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £495,000 sits 76.8% above the 2007 sale of £280,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£186/sq ft) was about 33.6% below the postcode norm. 4 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, a loft conversion and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
