Overview

About 23 Barnsley Street

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

23 Barnsley Street is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Wigan (WN6 7HA). It has a recorded floor area of 157 m² (around 1690 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (January 2016) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 5 certificates since September 2009. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 64). The latest certificate is from January 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

It hasn't traded since January 2007, a hold of 20 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 157 m² the property is well over the postcode median (107 m² across 25 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2001–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 16.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £199,000 sits 87.7% above the 2007 sale of £106,000.

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.

Valuation method in detail

How the estimate is made: The estimate for 23 Barnsley Street is modelled from its 157 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in WN6 7HA. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from: Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for 23 Barnsley Street. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC: Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 23 Barnsley Street was lodged in January 2016 at band E and expired in January 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 5 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records: Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 23 Barnsley Street. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures: Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 25 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WN6 7HA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band: 23 Barnsley Street is in council tax band B. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
