About This E-Rated Property
This terraced house is located in TELFORD, TF1 5NF. The property offers 62.56m² (673 sq ft) of modest-sized living space with 3 habitable rooms. It is built during the 1980s construction period. The property has an EPC rating of E (50/100), which is below average but still meets minimum rental requirements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a D rating (66/100). The property uses electric storage heaters, which charge overnight on cheaper electricity tariffs. While having low installation costs, running costs are typically higher than gas central heating. A heat pump could reduce electricity use by 60-70%. 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 £654, comprising £369 for heating, £233 for hot water, and £52 for lighting. The property produces 4.2 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is moderate for a UK home.
