Overview

About 20 Mains Avenue

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

20 Mains Avenue is a semi-detached house in Bamfurlong, Wigan, Wigan (WN2 5LG). It has a recorded floor area of 125 m² (around 1346 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (June 2010) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The latest certificate is from June 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since August 1997 — that's 29 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 125 m² the property is well over the postcode median (76 m² across 13 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £178,000 sits 493.3% above the 1997 sale of £30,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£22/sq ft) was about 78.9% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2004. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
