Overview

About 16 Carnforth Avenue

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

16 Carnforth Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Hindley Green, Wigan, Wigan (WN2 4LD). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 893 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (October 2012) shows a C (score 70). When first surveyed in June 2011 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 86). The latest certificate is from October 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 2003–2013, sale prices on this property compounded at 2.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £204,000 sits 63.3% above the 2013 sale of £124,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£140/sq ft) was about 17.7% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2004. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 80% of similar EPCs). On the market in March 2013 and unlisted since — roughly 13 years.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 16 Carnforth Avenue is modelled from its 83 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in WN2 4LD. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 3 sales are recorded for 16 Carnforth Avenue. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 16 Carnforth Avenue was lodged in October 2012 at band C and expired in October 2022, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 16 Carnforth Avenue. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 10 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 22 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WN2 4LD, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
16 Carnforth Avenue is in council tax band B. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
