About This Property

This semi-detached bungalow is located in CANNOCK, WS11 6DY. The property offers 97m² (1044 sq ft) of good-sized living space with 5 habitable rooms. It is a characterful interwar or early 20th century home. With an EPC rating of D (59/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency.

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 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 £1088, comprising £909 for heating, £97 for hot water, and £82 for lighting. The property produces 5.4 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is moderate for a UK home. The property last sold in July 2021 for £115,000. 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.
