About This Property

This semi-detached bungalow is located in SPALDING, PE12 9HG. The property offers 118m² (1270 sq ft) of good-sized living space with 8 habitable rooms. It is a 1990s-era home. With an EPC rating of B (88/100), this property is highly energy efficient, placing it in the top tier of UK homes. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a A rating (92/100). Heating is provided by oil-fired central heating. While effective, oil prices can be volatile and the system produces higher carbon emissions than gas or heat pumps. The walls feature cavity wall insulation with good efficiency ratings, providing solid thermal performance. The property has good loft insulation, though topping up to the recommended 270mm depth could provide additional energy savings. 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 £1516, comprising £1113 for heating, £227 for hot water, and £176 for lighting. The property produces 2.3 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is low for a UK home. The property last sold in July 2025 for £392,000.
