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. 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 9 years ago, in December 2016.
