About This Property

This detached house is located in ASHBOURNE, DE6 5LU. The property offers 149m² (1604 sq ft) of spacious living space with 7 habitable rooms. It is a 1990s-era home. With an EPC rating of D (55/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (72/100). The oil-fired central heating has poor efficiency. Oil boilers are more expensive to run than gas and have higher carbon emissions. Consider switching to a heat pump (eligible for £7,500 BUS grant) for significant long-term savings. 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. 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 £1780, comprising £1278 for heating, £355 for hot water, and £147 for lighting. The property produces 7.9 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is above average for a UK home. The property last sold in January 2017 for £290,000.
