About 6 Blackledge Close
6 Blackledge Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Orrell, Wigan, Wigan (WN5 8TB). It has a recorded floor area of 93 m² (around 1003 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2009) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The latest certificate is from June 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since October 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 1999–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £289,000 sits 52.1% above the 2009 sale of £190,000.
