Why Does This Property Have a F Rating?
This detached house is located in CHORLEY, PR7 1QY. The property offers 253m² (2723 sq ft) of generously-sized living space with 9 habitable rooms. It is a period property with Victorian or earlier origins. Currently rated F (21/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (74/100). The oil-fired central heating has poor efficiency. Oil boilers are more expensive to run than gas and have higher carbon emissions. Consider switching to a heat pump (eligible for £7,500 BUS grant) for significant long-term savings. The walls feature cavity wall insulation for improved thermal efficiency. The property has good loft insulation, though topping up to the recommended 270mm depth could provide additional energy savings. Double glazing is installed throughout the property, providing good thermal and acoustic insulation. Estimated annual energy costs are £4097, comprising £3722 for heating, £241 for hot water, and £134 for lighting. The property produces 23.0 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home. The property last sold in August 2016 for £287,000.
