Overview

About 5 Cross Yard

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

5 Cross Yard is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Wigan (WN1 1XF). It has a recorded floor area of 52 m² (around 560 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2019) shows a C (score 71). When first surveyed in March 2009 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while main heating dropped from Average to Very Poor. Main heating runs on electricity. At 52 m² this is the 6th smallest of 13 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 38–61 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B across 13 units on file.

It hasn't traded since December 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2005–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 1.1% per year.
