About 522 Wigan Road

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

522 Wigan Road is a mid-terrace house in Ashton-In-Makerfield, Wigan, Wigan (WN4 0BX). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 797 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows an F (score 28), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on dual fuel.
