11 Orchard Close is a two-bedroom detached house in Hughenden Valley, High Wycombe, High Wycombe (HP14 4PR). It has a recorded floor area of 65 m² (around 697 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (March 2009) shows an E (score 41), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 69), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in June 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 1996–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £459,000 sits 53% above the 2009 sale of £299,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£430/sq ft) was about 48.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 65 m² it sits well below the postcode median (120 m² across 16 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2009. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
