Overview

About 17 Barkus Way

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

17 Barkus Way is a semi-detached house in Stokenchurch, High Wycombe, High Wycombe (HP14 3RD). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 840 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band B. At 78 m² this is the 27th smallest of 33 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 37–92 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to B, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (39 versus a best of 81). The latest certificate (March 2014) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from March 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since November 2002 — that's 24 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 78 m² the property is well over the postcode median (46 m² across 32 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs). Across 1999–2002, sale prices on this property compounded at 15.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £311,000 sits 196.2% above the 2002 sale of £105,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£125/sq ft) was about 45.5% below the postcode norm.

Method

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 17 Barkus Way is modelled from its 78 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in HP14 3RD. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 17 Barkus Way. 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 17 Barkus Way was lodged in March 2014 at band E and expired in March 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 17 Barkus Way. 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 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 2 schools and 29 stops listed are measured in a straight line from HP14 3RD, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
17 Barkus Way is in council tax band B. 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.
