Writtle Cottage, Piddington Lane, Piddington, High Wycombe, HP14 3BB

Writtle Cottage is a four-bedroom detached house in Piddington, High Wycombe, High Wycombe (HP14 3BB). It has a recorded floor area of 130 m² (around 1399 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (March 2013) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from March 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

At 130 m² the property is well over the postcode median (95 m² across 8 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 75% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £539,000 sits 54% above the 2014 sale of £350,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2006. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in October 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.
