About This E-Rated Property
This semi-detached house is located in OAKHAM, LE15 9LB. The property offers 83m² (893 sq ft) of good-sized living space with 4 habitable rooms. It is a characterful interwar or early 20th century home. The property has an EPC rating of E (46/100), which is below average but still meets minimum rental requirements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a B rating (82/100). 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 solid walls lack insulation. Solid wall insulation (external or internal) typically costs £8,000-£14,000 but can reduce heat loss by up to 35% and improve your EPC rating by 1-2 bands. 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 £1743, comprising £1393 for heating, £235 for hot water, and £115 for lighting. The property produces 6.0 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is above average for a UK home. The property last sold in April 2024 for £330,000, with 2 recorded sales in our database.
