About This Property
This semi-detached house is located in WOLVERHAMPTON, WV5 0NF. The property offers 91.02m² (980 sq ft) of good-sized living space with 4 habitable rooms. It is a post-war property from the mid-20th century. With an EPC rating of D (59/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency. The gas central heating system has good efficiency, indicating a relatively modern, well-maintained boiler. 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 £934, comprising £787 for heating, £87 for hot water, and £60 for lighting. The property produces 4.7 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is moderate for a UK home. The property last sold in December 2018 for £215,000.
