Overview

About 2 Bassetsbury Lane

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

2 Bassetsbury Lane is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in High Wycombe (HP11 1QU). It has a recorded floor area of 85 m² (around 915 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2015) shows an F (score 33), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The rating has held steady at F across 2 certificates since February 2014. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good and window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average; while wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 4-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 85 m² it sits well below the postcode median (160 m² across 5 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £467,000 is 33.4% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£383/sq ft) was about 43% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in June 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.
