Overview

About 178 Cansfield Grove

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

178 Cansfield Grove is a mid-terrace house in Ashton-In-Makerfield, Wigan, Wigan (WN4 9SE). It has a recorded floor area of 116 m² (around 1249 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since April 1995, a hold of 31 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £180,000 sits 350% above the 1995 sale of £40,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£32/sq ft) was about 67.9% below the postcode norm. At 116 m² it's 24.9% larger than the typical home in the postcode (93 m² median across 22 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 82% of similar EPCs).
