About This Property

This terraced house is located in LONDON, SW7 5PH. The property offers 101mยฒ (1087 sq ft) of good-sized living space with 3 habitable rooms. It is a period property with Victorian or earlier origins. With an EPC rating of D (63/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency. Underfloor heating provides even heat distribution and works particularly well with heat pumps due to the lower water temperatures required. The solid walls lack insulation. Solid wall insulation (external or internal) typically costs ยฃ8,000-ยฃ14,000 but can reduce heat loss by up to 35% and improve your EPC rating by 1-2 bands. Double glazing is installed, though the efficiency rating suggests older units. Modern low-E double glazing can be up to 40% more efficient than units installed before 2002. Estimated annual energy costs are ยฃ696, comprising ยฃ427 for heating, ยฃ157 for hot water, and ยฃ112 for lighting. The property produces 4.5 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is moderate for a UK home. For landlords: This rental property with a D rating is positioned above the current minimum standard. With proposed changes to require a C rating by 2028, modest improvements now could future-proof your compliance.
