About 5 Ashland Avenue

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

5 Ashland Avenue is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Wigan (WN1 2DP). It has a recorded floor area of 191 m² (around 2056 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2015) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (November 2015); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
