About This Property

This terraced house is located in COVENTRY, CV5 6HT. The property offers 67m² (721 sq ft) of modest-sized living space with 4 habitable rooms. It is a characterful interwar or early 20th century home. The property holds an EPC rating of C (69/100), meeting the government's target standard for energy efficiency. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a B rating (86/100). The gas central heating system has good efficiency, indicating a relatively modern, well-maintained boiler.

Estimated annual energy costs are £1412, comprising £1106 for heating, £197 for hot water, and £109 for lighting. The property produces 2.6 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is low for a UK home.
