Overview

About 15 City Road

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

15 City Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Wigan (WN5 0AY). It has a recorded floor area of 388 m² (around 4176 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (January 2014) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 64). The latest certificate is from January 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

At 388 m² the property is well over the postcode median (76 m² across 8 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs). Last sale on file: £148,500 in July 2021. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1998–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £188,000 is 26.6% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£36/sq ft) was about 72.9% below the postcode norm.
