Overview

About 215 Desborough Avenue

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

215 Desborough Avenue is a four-bedroom detached house in High Wycombe (HP11 2TW). It has a recorded floor area of 90 m² (around 969 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The property has underfloor heating on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Period features are noted in the property record. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The latest certificate (June 2011) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 79% of similar EPCs). 4 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 2 is the typical count. Across 2012–2017, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £802,000 is 32.6% above the 2017 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£625/sq ft) was about 217.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last changed hands 9 years ago, in November 2017.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 215 Desborough Avenue is modelled from its 90 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in HP11 2TW. 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 215 Desborough Avenue. 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 215 Desborough Avenue was lodged in June 2011 at band E and expired in June 2021, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 215 Desborough Avenue. 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 19 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from HP11 2TW, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
215 Desborough Avenue is in council tax band E. 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.
