About The Coppice
The Coppice is a six-bedroom detached house in Great Missenden (HP16 9BH). It has a recorded floor area of 296 m² (around 3184 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (August 2009) shows an F (score 32), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 40). The latest certificate is from August 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since July 1999 — that's 27 years off the open market, well above the local norm.
