About This Property

This semi-detached house is located in CHELMSFORD, CM2 0EP. The property offers 121m² (1302 sq ft) of spacious living space with 6 habitable rooms. It is a characterful interwar or early 20th century home. With an EPC rating of D (65/100), this property is around the UK average for energy 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 £1045, comprising £791 for heating, £107 for hot water, and £147 for lighting. The property produces 4.8 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is moderate for a UK home.
