About This Property

This terraced flat is located in BRIGHTON, BN1 6HH. The property offers 69m² (743 sq ft) of modest-sized living space with 3 habitable rooms. It is a characterful interwar or early 20th century home. With an EPC rating of D (62/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency. The oil-fired central heating has poor efficiency. Oil boilers are more expensive to run than gas and have higher carbon emissions. Consider switching to a heat pump (eligible for £7,500 BUS grant) for significant long-term savings. 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 £1111, comprising £791 for heating, £252 for hot water, and £68 for lighting. The property produces 3.4 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is low for a UK home. For landlords: This rental property with a D rating is positioned above the current minimum standard. With proposed changes to require a C rating by 2028, modest improvements now could future-proof your compliance.
