Overview

About Orchard Farm

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

Orchard Farm is a detached house in Hughenden Valley, High Wycombe, High Wycombe (HP14 4LW). It has a recorded floor area of 127 m² (around 1367 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows an E (score 42), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £744,000 is 44.9% below the 2017 sale of £1,350,000, a rare downward gap that often correlates with deferred maintenance or unfinished works. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£988/sq ft) was about 318.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 127 m² it's 22.1% larger than the typical home in the postcode (104 m² median across 4 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs). On the market in October 2017 and unlisted since — roughly 9 years. 2 planning records sit against the property, 0 approved, 2 refused.
