About This Property

This semi-detached maisonette is located in THETFORD, IP24 2EL. The property offers 73m² (786 sq ft) of modest-sized living space with 4 habitable rooms. It is a post-war property from the mid-20th century. With an EPC rating of D (63/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (75/100). The gas central heating system has good efficiency, indicating a relatively modern, well-maintained boiler. The walls feature cavity wall insulation for improved thermal efficiency. 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 throughout the property, providing good thermal and acoustic insulation. Estimated annual energy costs are £801, comprising £591 for heating, £127 for hot water, and £83 for lighting. The property produces 3.6 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is low 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.
