About This Property
This detached flat is located in CHATHAM, ME4 4NB. The property offers 49.04m² (528 sq ft) of compact living space with 3 habitable rooms. It is a post-war property from the mid-20th century. With an EPC rating of B (81/100), this property is highly energy efficient, placing it in the top tier of UK homes. The property benefits from a highly efficient gas central heating system, likely a modern condensing boiler achieving 90%+ efficiency. The flat roof has poor insulation.
