Overview

About 1 Loakes House

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

1 Loakes House is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in High Wycombe (HP11 2LL). It has a recorded floor area of 162 m² (around 1744 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. Tenure is freehold. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Other recorded features include a basement. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position. At 162 m² this is the largest unit on EPC record across the building (66–162 m²). The building's EPC ratings span F to D, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (September 2020) shows an F (score 35), near the bottom of the EPC scale. When first surveyed in March 2010 the rating was G, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, window efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.

Across 2016–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.9% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£205/sq ft) was about 17% below the postcode norm.

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 1 Loakes House is modelled from its 162 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in HP11 2LL. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for 1 Loakes House. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 1 Loakes House was lodged in September 2020 at band F and is valid until September 2030. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 1 Loakes House. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 22 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from HP11 2LL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
1 Loakes House is in council tax band C. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
