Overview

About 6 Burns Close

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

6 Burns Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Wigan (WN3 5HX). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 840 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (August 2015) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since August 2009. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Good to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in December 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 2003–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £147,000 sits 104.2% above the 2009 sale of £72,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£86/sq ft) was about 15.8% below the postcode norm.
