About This Property
This flat is located in LONDON, SE5 7QE. The property offers 38.58m² (415 sq ft) of compact living space with 2 habitable rooms. It is a 1990s-era home. With an EPC rating of D (61/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency. The walls feature cavity wall insulation with good efficiency ratings, providing solid thermal performance.
