Overview

About 2 The Brackens

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

2 The Brackens is a four-bedroom detached house in High Wycombe (HP11 1EB). It has a recorded floor area of 157 m² (around 1688 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (March 2011) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The latest certificate is from March 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

At 157 m² the property is well over the postcode median (106 m² across 9 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £706,000 sits 60.5% above the 2011 sale of £440,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£261/sq ft) was about 27.2% below the postcode norm. Last sold in August 2011, so it's been off the market for around 15 years.
