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 27 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 28–133 m². The building's EPC ratings span G to C across 27 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 (83 m² across 26 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 £281,000 is 12.4% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£484/sq ft) was about 106.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: subdivision refused in 2008.

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 284 West Wycombe Road is modelled from its 48 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in HP12 4AB. 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 284 West Wycombe Road. 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 284 West Wycombe Road was lodged in April 2024 at band D and is valid until April 2034. 4 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 284 West Wycombe Road. 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 4AB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
284 West Wycombe Road 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.
