About This Property

This detached house is located in CIRENCESTER, GL7 6NQ. The property offers 104m² (1119 sq ft) of good-sized living space with 6 habitable rooms. It is built during the 1980s construction period. 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 (78/100). Heating is provided by oil-fired central heating. While effective, oil prices can be volatile and the system produces higher carbon emissions than gas or heat pumps. The walls feature cavity wall insulation with good efficiency ratings, providing solid thermal performance. Single glazing is a significant source of heat loss, accounting for up to 25% of a home's heat escaping through windows. Upgrading to double glazing typically costs £400-£600 per window but improves thermal comfort and can reduce noise by up to 30dB. Estimated annual energy costs are £1381, comprising £1034 for heating, £211 for hot water, and £136 for lighting. The property produces 9.1 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home. The property last sold in February 2020 for £361,000, with 2 recorded sales in our database.
