Overview

About 9 Bennett Drive

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

9 Bennett Drive is a detached house in Orrell, Wigan, Wigan (WN5 7AR). It has a recorded floor area of 155 m² (around 1668 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (October 2014) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since December 1998 — that's 27 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £457,000 sits 219.7% above the 1998 sale of £142,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£86/sq ft) was about 16.9% below the postcode norm. At 155 m² it's 19.5% larger than the typical home in the postcode (130 m² median across 11 EPCs).
