About This Property
This semi-detached house is located in NEWMARKET, CB8 9SU. The property offers 70m² (753 sq ft) of modest-sized living space with 5 habitable rooms. It is built during the 1980s construction period. With an EPC rating of D (67/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a B rating (84/100). 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. 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 £511, comprising £339 for heating, £119 for hot water, and £53 for lighting. The property produces 3.3 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is low for a UK home. The property last sold in June 2025 for £275,000. 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.
