Overview

About 15a

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

15a is an end-of-terrace house in Abram, Wigan, Wigan (WN2 5YP). It has a recorded floor area of 57 m² (around 617 sq ft) and council tax band A. At 57 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (57–223 m²). The building's EPC ratings span D to B, with this unit at the top. On EPC score it ranks first in the building (82 versus a worst of 57). The latest certificate (February 2009) returns a B (score 82), comfortably above the UK average. The latest certificate is from February 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since March 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 57 m² it sits well below the postcode median (113 m² across 54 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. Today's modelled estimate of £124,000 is 37.8% above the 2009 sale price.

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 15a is modelled from its 57 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in WN2 5YP. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 15a. 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 15a was lodged in February 2009 at band B and expired in February 2019, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 15a. 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 8 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WN2 5YP, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
15a is in council tax band A. 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.
