Local market context
Branksome is a three-bedroom detached house in Ince, Wigan, Wigan (WN3 4RJ). It has a recorded floor area of 130 m² (around 1399 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2026) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since March 2010. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 71). This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition. Other recorded features include a conservatory.
At 130 m² the property is well over the postcode median (92 m² across 28 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £305,000 sits 77.3% above the 2016 sale of £172,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£123/sq ft) was about 46.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in March 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2008.
The EPC has just been inspected, so the rating reflects current condition.
