Overview

About 9 Alton Close

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

9 Alton Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Ashton-In-Makerfield, Wigan, Wigan (WN4 9TX). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 893 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (June 2016) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in June 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, lighting went from Good to Very Good and main heating went from Very Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Untraded for 15 years, with the last transfer in January 2011. Today's modelled estimate of £166,000 sits 107.5% above the 2011 sale of £80,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£90/sq ft) was about 20.1% below the postcode norm.
