Overview

About 16 Britannia Road

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

16 Britannia Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Wigan (WN5 0EN). It has a recorded floor area of 70 m² (around 753 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in December 2012 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 2013–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £148,000 sits 60.9% above the 2021 sale of £92,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£122/sq ft) was about 39% above the typical sold price in the postcode. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs). Last sale on file: £92,000 in February 2021. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
