Why Does This Property Have a F Rating?

This semi-detached house is located in LONDON, SE5 8EG. The property offers 185m² (1991 sq ft) of generously-sized living space with 7 habitable rooms. It is a characterful interwar or early 20th century home. Currently rated F (27/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a E rating (52/100). The walls feature cavity wall insulation for improved thermal efficiency. The pitched roof lacks adequate insulation. Topping up loft insulation to 270mm (the recommended depth) typically costs £300-£500 and could save £150-£250 annually, with the investment often paying for itself within 2-3 years. 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 £3328, comprising £2673 for heating, £525 for hot water, and £130 for lighting. The property produces 14.0 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home. The property last sold in June 2020 for £1,150,000.
