Overview

About 3 Hartley Grove

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

3 Hartley Grove is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Orrell, Wigan, Wigan (WN5 0DJ). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (August 2015) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in March 2012 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good; while lighting dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £138,000 sits 72.5% above the 2012 sale of £80,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£97/sq ft) was about 32% below the postcode norm. 14 years since the last transfer (November 2012).
