About This Property
This terraced house is located in HUDDERSFIELD, HD3 3EW. The property offers 115m² (1238 sq ft) of good-sized living space with 4 habitable rooms. It is a characterful interwar or early 20th century home. With an EPC rating of D (61/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (76/100). The gas central heating system has good efficiency, indicating a relatively modern, well-maintained boiler. The pitched roof lacks adequate insulation. Topping up loft insulation to 270mm (the recommended depth) typically costs £300-£500 and could save £150-£250 annually, with the investment often paying for itself within 2-3 years. 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 £3026, comprising £2607 for heating, £255 for hot water, and £164 for lighting. The property produces 6.0 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is above average for a UK home.
