About 8 Crown Street
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
8 Crown Street is a mid-terrace house in Wigan (WN3 5BL). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 786 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (July 2013) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since March 2013. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Today's modelled estimate of £120,000 is 36.4% above the 2022 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£112/sq ft) was about 25.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold April 2022 for £88,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
