Overview

About 2 Ancroft Drive

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

2 Ancroft Drive is a three-bedroom detached house in Hindley, Wigan, Wigan (WN2 3ST). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 850 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2014) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). The latest certificate is from February 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in November 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 86% of similar EPCs). Across 2001–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £231,000 is 49% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£182/sq ft) was about 34.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
