About This Property
This terraced flat is located in LEYTON, E10 7NB. The property offers 34m² (366 sq ft) of compact living space with 2 habitable rooms. It is built during the 1980s construction period. The property holds an EPC rating of C (70/100), meeting the government's target standard for energy efficiency. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a B rating (83/100). The property uses electric storage heaters, which charge overnight on cheaper electricity tariffs. While having low installation costs, running costs are typically higher than gas central heating. A heat pump could reduce electricity use by 60-70%. 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 £505, comprising £215 for heating, £232 for hot water, and £58 for lighting. The property produces 1.9 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is very low for a UK home.
