About This Property
This detached house is located in SANDY, SG19 1PS. The property offers 208m² (2239 sq ft) of generously-sized living space with 7 habitable rooms. It is a period property with Victorian or earlier origins. With an EPC rating of B (84/100), this property is highly energy efficient, placing it in the top tier of UK homes.

Double glazing is installed throughout the property, providing good thermal and acoustic insulation. Estimated annual energy costs are £2107, comprising £1637 for heating, £356 for hot water, and £114 for lighting. The property produces 2.2 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is low for a UK home.
