About This Property
This detached house is located in DERBY, DE22 2NP. The property offers 415m² (4467 sq ft) of generously-sized living space with 12 habitable rooms. It is a recently constructed modern home. With an EPC rating of D (68/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (71/100). 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 cavity walls have excellent insulation, contributing significantly to the property's thermal efficiency and helping maintain stable indoor temperatures year-round. 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 £3136, comprising £2654 for heating, £144 for hot water, and £338 for lighting. The property produces 6.9 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is above average for a UK home.
