About This Property

This detached house is located in NORWICH, NR13 5EY. The property offers 132m² (1421 sq ft) of spacious living space with 7 habitable rooms. It is a post-war property from the mid-20th century. With an EPC rating of D (55/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (78/100). Heating is provided by oil-fired central heating. While effective, oil prices can be volatile and the system produces higher carbon emissions than gas or heat pumps. The flat roof has poor insulation. Flat roof insulation is more complex but essential for preventing heat loss and condensation issues, typically costing £1,000-£3,000 depending on access and method. 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 £1917, comprising £1526 for heating, £214 for hot water, and £177 for lighting. The property produces 6.4 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is above average for a UK home.
