About This E-Rated Property
This detached house is located in LONDON, SE19 3QU. The property offers 174mยฒ (1873 sq ft) of spacious living space with 7 habitable rooms. It is a characterful interwar or early 20th century home. The property has an EPC rating of E (52/100), which is below average but still meets minimum rental requirements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (80/100). 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 ยฃ8,000-ยฃ14,000 but can reduce heat loss by up to 35% and improve your EPC rating by 1-2 bands. The property has good loft insulation, though topping up to the recommended 270mm depth could provide additional energy savings. 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 ยฃ1948, comprising ยฃ1648 for heating, ยฃ178 for hot water, and ยฃ122 for lighting. The property produces 8.8 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home. The property last sold in November 2023 for ยฃ865,000.
