Why Does This Property Have a F Rating?

This detached house is located in GOOLE, DN14 7AG. The property offers 508m² (5468 sq ft) of generously-sized living space with 12 habitable rooms. It is a period property with Victorian or earlier origins. Currently rated F (24/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a D rating (67/100). The gas central heating system has good efficiency, indicating a relatively modern, well-maintained boiler. The solid walls lack insulation. Solid wall insulation (external or internal) typically costs £8,000-£14,000 but can reduce heat loss by up to 35% and improve your EPC rating by 1-2 bands. 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. Estimated annual energy costs are £7272, comprising £6793 for heating, £253 for hot water, and £226 for lighting. The property produces 36.0 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home. The property last sold in June 2021 for £730,000.
