Why Does This Property Have a F Rating?

This detached house is located in BROMLEY, BR2 9AT. The property offers 123m² (1324 sq ft) of spacious living space with 6 habitable rooms. It is a post-war property from the mid-20th century. Currently rated F (31/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a B rating (84/100). The gas central heating system has average efficiency, indicating a boiler that may be 10-15 years old. While functional, upgrading to a modern A-rated condensing boiler could improve efficiency by 15-25%. The walls feature cavity wall insulation for improved thermal efficiency. The property has good loft insulation, though topping up to the recommended 270mm depth could provide additional energy savings. 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 £2209, comprising £1678 for heating, £414 for hot water, and £117 for lighting. The property produces 10.0 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home. The property last sold in February 2016 for £701,000.
