Overview

About 20 Church Street

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

20 Church Street is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Ince, Wigan, Wigan (WN3 4RF). It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 807 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows an E (score 42), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (May 2012); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
