About This Property

This detached house is located in BUCKINGHAM, MK18 4AY. The property offers 178m² (1916 sq ft) of spacious living space with 7 habitable rooms. It is a characterful interwar or early 20th century home. The property holds an EPC rating of C (80/100), meeting the government's target standard for energy efficiency. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a A rating (95/100). Heating is provided by oil-fired central heating.

Estimated annual energy costs are £2140, comprising £1745 for heating, £216 for hot water, and £179 for lighting. The property produces 5.1 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is moderate for a UK home.
