About 2 Lorne Street
2 Lorne Street is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Wigan (WN1 3JJ). It has a recorded floor area of 91 m² (around 980 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (June 2024) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since October 2009. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump.
It hasn't traded since September 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area.
