42 Lime Avenue, High Wycombe, HP11 1DR
About 42 Lime Avenue
42 Lime Avenue is a three-bedroom detached house in High Wycombe (HP11 1DR). It has a recorded floor area of 131 m² (around 1415 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (November 2011) shows a G (score 1), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to F (score 27). Main heating runs on to be used only when there is no heating/hot. The latest certificate is from November 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include attached land beyond the plot.
At 131 m² it's 24.6% larger than the typical home in the postcode (106 m² median across 4 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £648,000 sits 62% above the 2012 sale of £400,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£283/sq ft) was about 18.7% below the postcode norm. 3 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in May 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 years.
