Overview

About 12 Chester Close

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

12 Chester Close is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Ince, Wigan, Wigan (WN3 4JP). It has a recorded floor area of 101 m² (around 1087 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2012) shows a C (score 78), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 88). The latest certificate is from April 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since November 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 101 m² the property is well over the postcode median (71 m² across 16 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock.
