Overview

About 42 Ashbourne Avenue

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

42 Ashbourne Avenue is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Wigan (WN2 1AF). It has a recorded floor area of 81 m² (around 872 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2019) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Other recorded features include a conservatory.
