Overview

About 22 Balcarres Avenue

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

22 Balcarres Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Wigan (WN1 3UX). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 896 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2010) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (November 2008); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 65). The latest certificate is from April 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since April 2006 — that's 20 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Today's modelled estimate of £200,000 sits 60% above the 2006 sale of £125,000. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 81% of similar EPCs).
