Overview

About 1 Bailey Close

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

1 Bailey Close is a five-bedroom detached house in High Wycombe (HP13 6QA). It has a recorded floor area of 179 m² (around 1927 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (January 2021) shows a C (score 74). When first surveyed in June 2009 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. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 83).

It hasn't traded since July 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £762,000 sits 120.9% above the 2009 sale of £345,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£179/sq ft) was about 47.6% below the postcode norm. At 179 m² it's 16.2% larger than the typical home in the postcode (154 m² median across 7 EPCs). 5 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2014.

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 1 Bailey Close is modelled from its 179 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in HP13 6QA. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 1 Bailey Close. 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 1 Bailey Close was lodged in January 2021 at band C and is valid until January 2031. 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 1 Bailey Close. 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 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 23 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from HP13 6QA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
1 Bailey Close is in council tax band G. 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.
