About This Property

This semi-detached house is located in IPSWICH, IP2 9TA. The property offers 77m² (829 sq ft) of modest-sized living space with 4 habitable rooms. It is built during the 1980s construction period. With an EPC rating of B (81/100), this property is highly energy efficient, placing it in the top tier of UK homes. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a A rating (97/100). This property benefits from a air source heat pump system, which can deliver 3-4 units of heat for every unit of electricity used. Heat pumps are eligible for the £7,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant, making them increasingly popular for UK homes seeking to reduce carbon emissions. 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, 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 £926, comprising £576 for heating, £286 for hot water, and £64 for lighting. The property produces 1.3 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is very low for a UK home.
