Overview

About 284 West Wycombe Road

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

284 West Wycombe Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in High Wycombe (HP12 4AB). It has a recorded floor area of 48 m² (around 517 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2024) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it B (May 2010); the latest reading is 2 bands lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. At 48 m² this is the 10th smallest of 26 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 28–133 m². The building's EPC ratings span G to C across 26 units on file.

Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in February 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 48 m² it sits well below the postcode median (79 m² across 25 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 2005–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £289,000 is 15.6% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£484/sq ft) was about 99.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: subdivision refused in 2008.
