Overview

About 28 Darvel Avenue

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

28 Darvel Avenue is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Ashton-In-Makerfield, Wigan, Wigan (WN4 0UA). It has a recorded floor area of 47 m² (around 504 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2010) shows an F (score 37), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 63), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from September 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Held since June 2011 — that's 15 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 47 m² it sits well below the postcode median (105 m² across 9 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £174,000 sits 65.7% above the 2011 sale of £105,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2013. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 28 Darvel Avenue is modelled from its 47 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in WN4 0UA. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 28 Darvel Avenue. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 28 Darvel Avenue was lodged in September 2010 at band F and expired in September 2020, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 28 Darvel Avenue. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 17 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WN4 0UA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
28 Darvel Avenue is in council tax band C. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
