Estimated annual energy costs are ยฃ1770, comprising ยฃ1507 for heating, ยฃ113 for hot water, and ยฃ150 for lighting. The property produces 7.9 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is above average for a UK home. For landlords: This property currently meets the minimum E rating requirement under MEES regulations. However, the government has proposed increasing the minimum to C by 2028 for new tenancies and 2030 for existing tenancies, so consider planning upgrades now.
