Why Does This Property Have a G Rating?

This terraced house is located in THIRSK, YO7 1DF. The property offers 77m² (829 sq ft) of modest-sized living space with 5 habitable rooms. It is a period property with Victorian or earlier origins. Currently rated G (15/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (77/100). 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 £2346, comprising £2160 for heating, £97 for hot water, and £89 for lighting. The property produces 12.0 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home. The property last sold in August 2015 for £145,000.
