Overview

About 7 Finch Lane

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

7 Finch Lane is a two-bedroom detached house in Appley Bridge, Wigan, Wigan (WN6 9DT). It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 672 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2011) shows a G (score 2), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to F (score 28). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from September 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

At 62 m² it sits well below the postcode median (135 m² across 13 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £221,000 sits 57.9% above the 2012 sale of £140,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£208/sq ft) was about 22.9% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2012. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. On the market in April 2012 and unlisted since — roughly 14 years.
