About This Property
This semi-detached flat is located in LUTON, LU2 0JZ. The property offers 41m² (441 sq ft) of compact living space with 2 habitable rooms. It is a 1990s-era home. The property holds an EPC rating of C (77/100), meeting the government's target standard for energy efficiency. Heating is provided by oil-fired central heating. While effective, oil prices can be volatile and the system produces higher carbon emissions than gas or heat pumps. The walls feature cavity wall insulation with good efficiency ratings, providing solid thermal performance. 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 £494, comprising £243 for heating, £200 for hot water, and £51 for lighting. The property produces 2.7 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is low for a UK home. The property last sold in January 2025 for £155,000.
