About This Property

This semi-detached house is located in WOLVERHAMPTON, WV10 6BL. The property offers 107m² (1152 sq ft) of good-sized living space with 5 habitable rooms. It is a post-war property from the mid-20th century. With an EPC rating of D (61/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a B rating (81/100). The gas central heating system has good efficiency, indicating a relatively modern, well-maintained boiler. 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 £1086, comprising £872 for heating, £86 for hot water, and £128 for lighting. The property produces 5.2 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is moderate for a UK home.
