Overview

About 8 Delphside Road

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

8 Delphside Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Orrell, Wigan, Wigan (WN5 8TR). It has a recorded floor area of 54 m² (around 581 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (August 2014) shows an E (score 46), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 71), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

At 54 m² it sits well below the postcode median (85 m² across 16 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2019. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2018–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 23.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £277,000 is 16.9% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£408/sq ft) was about 161.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold December 2021 for £237,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
