About This Property

This terraced house is located in ERITH, DA18 4HW. The property offers 94m² (1012 sq ft) of good-sized living space with 4 habitable rooms. It is built during the 1980s construction period. The property holds an EPC rating of C (71/100), meeting the government's target standard for energy efficiency. The gas central heating system has good efficiency, indicating a relatively modern, well-maintained boiler.
