About This Property

This terraced flat is located in LONDON, W10 5YJ. The property offers 47.34m² (510 sq ft) of compact living space with 2 habitable rooms. It is built during the 1980s construction period. The property holds an EPC rating of C (77/100), meeting the government's target standard for energy efficiency. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a B rating (83/100). The gas central heating system has good efficiency, indicating a relatively modern, well-maintained boiler. The walls feature cavity wall insulation for improved thermal efficiency. Single glazing is a significant source of heat loss, accounting for up to 25% of a home's heat escaping through windows. Upgrading to double glazing typically costs £400-£600 per window but improves thermal comfort and can reduce noise by up to 30dB. Estimated annual energy costs are £381, comprising £260 for heating, £75 for hot water, and £46 for lighting. The property produces 1.8 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is very low for a UK home.
