About 20 New Road
20 New Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Penn, High Wycombe, High Wycombe (HP10 8DJ). It has a recorded floor area of 184 m² (around 1985 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (November 2008) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since March 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales.
