About This Property

This detached bungalow is located in NORTHAMPTON, NN6 7TD. The property offers 194mยฒ (2088 sq ft) of generously-sized living space with 7 habitable rooms. It is a 1990s-era home. With an EPC rating of D (56/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (70/100). Heating is provided by oil-fired central heating. While effective, oil prices can be volatile and the system produces higher carbon emissions than gas or heat pumps. The walls feature cavity wall insulation with good efficiency ratings, providing solid thermal performance. The property has good loft insulation, though topping up to the recommended 270mm depth could provide additional energy savings. 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 ยฃ400-ยฃ600 per window but improves thermal comfort and can reduce noise by up to 30dB. Estimated annual energy costs are ยฃ1903, comprising ยฃ1550 for heating, ยฃ187 for hot water, and ยฃ166 for lighting. The property produces 9.5 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home.
