Overview

About 17 Swinley Road

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

17 Swinley Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Wigan (WN1 2DN). It has a recorded floor area of 400 m² (around 4301 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (April 2010) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The latest certificate is from April 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a self-contained annexe. Period features are noted in the property record.

At 400 m² the property is well over the postcode median (46 m² across 78 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 79% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £420,000 sits 58.5% above the 2017 sale of £265,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£62/sq ft) was about 54.2% below the postcode norm. Last sold in January 2017, so it's been off the market for around 10 years. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2001.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 17 Swinley Road is modelled from its 400 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in WN1 2DN. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 17 Swinley Road. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 17 Swinley Road was lodged in April 2010 at band E and expired in April 2020, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 17 Swinley Road. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 8 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 22 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WN1 2DN, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
17 Swinley Road is in council tax band B. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
