Overview

About 13 Selwood Way

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

13 Selwood Way is a four-bedroom detached house in Downley, High Wycombe, High Wycombe (HP13 5XR). It has a recorded floor area of 102 m² (around 1098 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (May 2014) returns a B (score 82), comfortably above the UK average. The latest certificate is from May 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since November 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 102 m² it's 15.8% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (121 m² median across 23 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. Today's modelled estimate of £570,000 is 42.5% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£364/sq ft) was about 24.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
