About This Property

This semi-detached house is located in UXBRIDGE, UB9 6EG. The property offers 86m² (926 sq ft) of good-sized living space with 4 habitable rooms. It is a characterful interwar or early 20th century home. With an EPC rating of D (63/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (80/100). The gas central heating system has good efficiency, indicating a relatively modern, well-maintained boiler.

Estimated annual energy costs are £1358, comprising £1061 for heating, £175 for hot water, and £122 for lighting. The property produces 3.5 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is low for a UK home.
