Overview

About 246a

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

246a is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in High Wycombe (HP12 3AR). It has a recorded floor area of 125 m² (around 1345 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2025) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 3-band jump. Period features are noted in the property record.

It hasn't traded since September 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 125 m² the property is well over the postcode median (52 m² across 68 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 76% of similar EPCs). Across 2001–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £385,000 sits 107.5% above the 2009 sale of £185,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£138/sq ft) was about 50% below the postcode norm.
