Why Does This Property Have a G Rating?

This terraced flat is located in LONDON, E17 9EP. The property offers 36mยฒ (388 sq ft) of compact living space with 2 habitable rooms. It is a period property with Victorian or earlier origins. Currently rated G (20/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (71/100). The solid walls lack insulation. Solid wall insulation (external or internal) typically costs ยฃ8,000-ยฃ14,000 but can reduce heat loss by up to 35% and improve your EPC rating by 1-2 bands. 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 ยฃ1292, comprising ยฃ1134 for heating, ยฃ133 for hot water, and ยฃ25 for lighting. The property produces 4.6 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is moderate for a UK home. The property last sold in April 2018 for ยฃ459,000, with 3 recorded sales in our database.
