About This Property

This semi-detached flat is located in BIRMINGHAM, B6 5EL. The property offers 47m² (506 sq ft) of compact living space with 2 habitable rooms. It is a post-war property from the mid-20th century. With an EPC rating of D (64/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency. 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 £1038, comprising £814 for heating, £143 for hot water, and £81 for lighting. The property produces 2.6 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.
