Overview

About Phoenix

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

Phoenix is a four-bedroom detached house in High Wycombe (HP12 4QS). It has a recorded floor area of 45 m² (around 484 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band A. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in July 2015 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good and roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 93), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views and a self-contained annexe.

At 45 m² it sits well below the postcode median (155 m² across 11 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2010. Past consents include an extension and an annexe, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2001–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £870,000 is 20.8% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£1,486/sq ft) was about 489.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last changed hands 10 years ago, in December 2016.

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 Phoenix is modelled from its 45 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in HP12 4QS. 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. 3 sales are recorded for Phoenix. 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 Phoenix was lodged in July 2015 at band C and expired in July 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 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 Phoenix. 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 11 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from HP12 4QS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Phoenix is in council tax band A. 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.
