This terraced house is located in LONDON, E11 3BS. The property offers 160m² (1722 sq ft) of spacious living space with 6 habitable rooms. It is a characterful interwar or early 20th century home. The property has an EPC rating of E (48/100), which is below average but still meets minimum rental requirements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (71/100). The gas central heating system has good efficiency, indicating a relatively modern, well-maintained boiler. The solid walls lack insulation. Solid wall insulation (external or internal) typically costs £8,000-£14,000 but can reduce heat loss by up to 35% and improve your EPC rating by 1-2 bands. The pitched roof lacks adequate insulation. Topping up loft insulation to 270mm (the recommended depth) typically costs £300-£500 and could save £150-£250 annually, with the investment often paying for itself within 2-3 years. Double glazing is installed, though the efficiency rating suggests older units. Modern low-E double glazing can be up to 40% more efficient than units installed before 2002. Estimated annual energy costs are £1891, comprising £1693 for heating, £101 for hot water, and £97 for lighting. The property produces 8.8 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home.

LONDON has a mix of older and newer housing stock. E-rated properties in this area typically pre-date modern insulation standards but are strong candidates for improvement — particularly insulation and heating system upgrades, which can lift ratings by two or more bands.
