Wharfside, Apartment 122, Heritage Way, Wigan, WN3 4AW

Wharfside is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Wigan (WN3 4AW). It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 667 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band C. At 62 m² this is the 28th smallest of 35 units on EPC record in Wharfside, where floor areas span 49–70 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the bottom. Other recorded features include a balcony. The latest certificate (June 2020) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since May 2009. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). Main heating runs on electricity.

Today's modelled estimate of £108,000 is 30.8% below the 2007 sale of £156,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£234/sq ft) was about 23.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. It hasn't traded since September 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price.
