Overview

About 3 Downley Court

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

3 Downley Court is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Downley, High Wycombe, High Wycombe (HP13 5TL). It has a recorded floor area of 52 m² (around 560 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. At 52 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (52–57 m²). The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows a C (score 70). When first surveyed in June 2010 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The latest certificate is from March 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£366/sq ft) was about 35.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Most recent transfer: June 2021 at £205,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
