About This Property

This terraced house is located in DURHAM, DH1 1QW. The property offers 135m² (1453 sq ft) of spacious living space with 6 habitable rooms. It is a period property with Victorian or earlier origins. The property holds an EPC rating of C (75/100), meeting the government's target standard for energy efficiency. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a B rating (82/100). The gas central heating system has good efficiency, indicating a relatively modern, well-maintained boiler. The cavity walls have excellent insulation, contributing significantly to the property's thermal efficiency and helping maintain stable indoor temperatures year-round. 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 £930, comprising £711 for heating, £95 for hot water, and £124 for lighting. The property produces 3.8 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is low for a UK home.
