Overview

About 2a

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

2a is a two-bedroom detached house in Ashton-In-Makerfield, Wigan, Wigan (WN4 9SF). It has a recorded floor area of 61 m² (around 654 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band A. The latest certificate (December 2008) shows a C (score 79), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 81). The latest certificate is from December 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

At 61 m² it's 24% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (80 m² median across 11 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. Across 2007–2018, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £165,000 is 43.5% above the 2018 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£176/sq ft) was about 51.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in June 2018, so it's been off the market for around 8 years. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2007.

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 2a is modelled from its 61 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in WN4 9SF. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 2a. 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 2a was lodged in December 2008 at band C and expired in December 2018, 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 2a. 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 12 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WN4 9SF, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
2a is in council tax band A. 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.
