Overview

About 2 Balcarres Road

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

2 Balcarres Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Aspull, Wigan, Wigan (WN2 1SD). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 850 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (November 2022) shows a C (score 70). When first surveyed in June 2011 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Average, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 84).

Held since December 2007 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £165,000 sits 73.7% above the 2007 sale of £95,000.
