Overview

About 1 Carnforth Avenue

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

1 Carnforth Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Hindley Green, Wigan, Wigan (WN2 4LD). It has a recorded floor area of 97 m² (around 1041 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (October 2010) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 72). The latest certificate is from October 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

It hasn't traded since July 1998, a hold of 28 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £201,000 sits 332.3% above the 1998 sale of £46,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£45/sq ft) was about 71.4% below the postcode norm. At 97 m² it's 16.5% larger than the typical home in the postcode (83 m² median across 10 EPCs).
