About This Property

This terraced flat is located in SLOUGH, SL2 1JD. The property offers 62m² (667 sq ft) of modest-sized living space with 3 habitable rooms. It is a post-war property from the mid-20th century. The property holds an EPC rating of C (69/100), meeting the government's target standard for energy efficiency. The gas central heating system has good efficiency, indicating a relatively modern, well-maintained boiler. The property has modern timber frame or system-built walls, which typically offer good insulation properties when properly maintained. The flat roof has poor insulation. Flat roof insulation is more complex but essential for preventing heat loss and condensation issues, typically costing £1,000-£3,000 depending on access and method. 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 £806, comprising £630 for heating, £107 for hot water, and £69 for lighting. The property produces 2.4 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is low for a UK home.
