8 Lime Avenue, High Wycombe, HP11 1DP
About 8 Lime Avenue
8 Lime Avenue is a semi-detached house in High Wycombe (HP11 1DP). It has a recorded floor area of 116 m² (around 1249 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since July 1995, a hold of 31 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. Today's modelled estimate of £527,000 sits 498.9% above the 1995 sale of £88,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£70/sq ft) was about 75.8% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2003. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
