Overview

About 5 Chiltern Avenue

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

5 Chiltern Avenue is a two-bedroom detached house in High Wycombe (HP12 3UR). It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 667 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. At 62 m² this is the 9th smallest of 30 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 34–165 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (February 2014) shows a C (score 75), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in December 2008 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. The latest certificate is from February 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£397/sq ft) was about 135.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 62 m² it's 15.1% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (73 m² median across 29 EPCs). Last sale on file: £265,000 in July 2022. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

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 5 Chiltern Avenue is modelled from its 62 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in HP12 3UR. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 5 Chiltern 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 5 Chiltern Avenue was lodged in February 2014 at band C and expired in February 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 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 5 Chiltern 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 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 16 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from HP12 3UR, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
5 Chiltern Avenue is in council tax band B. 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.
