About 8 Friars Gardens
8 Friars Gardens is a four-bedroom detached house in Hughenden Valley, High Wycombe, High Wycombe (HP14 4LT). It has a recorded floor area of 155 m² (around 1664 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (August 2009) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 63). The latest certificate is from August 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since December 2009, a hold of 16 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 £598,000 sits 68.5% above the 2009 sale of £355,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£213/sq ft) was about 25.1% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2005. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 74% of similar EPCs).
