About This Property

This flat is located in LONDON, SE7 7TA. The property offers 60.76m² (654 sq ft) of modest-sized living space with 4 habitable rooms. It is a characterful interwar or early 20th century home.

The property benefits from a highly efficient gas central heating system, likely a modern condensing boiler achieving 90%+ efficiency. The solid walls lack insulation.

Estimated annual energy costs are £576, comprising £459 for heating, £85 for hot water, and £32 for lighting. The property produces 2.8 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is low for a UK home.
