At a Glance
This terraced house is located in KENDAL, LA9 4ED. The property offers 48m² (517 sq ft) of compact living space with 3 habitable rooms. It is a period property with Victorian or earlier origins. With an EPC rating of D (60/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a A rating (92/100). The gas central heating system has good efficiency, indicating a relatively modern, well-maintained boiler. 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. Single glazing is a significant source of heat loss, accounting for up to 25% of a home's heat escaping through windows. Upgrading to double glazing typically costs £400-£600 per window but improves thermal comfort and can reduce noise by up to 30dB. Estimated annual energy costs are £691, comprising £553 for heating, £78 for hot water, and £60 for lighting. The property produces 3.1 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is low for a UK home. For landlords: This rental property with a D rating is positioned above the current minimum standard. With proposed changes to require a C rating by 2028, modest improvements now could future-proof your compliance.
With an energy efficiency score of 60/100, this KENDAL property is around the national average for UK homes. Annual energy costs of £691 are approximately £1109 below the UK average of £1800, representing significant savings. With 48m² of space, this is a more compact property compared to the UK average of 87m². At 3.1 tonnes of CO2 per year, emissions are below the UK average of 4.5 tonnes.
