About This Property

With an EPC rating of B (81/100), this property is highly energy efficient, placing it in the top tier of UK homes.

Estimated annual energy costs are £1326, comprising £456 for heating, £811 for hot water, and £59 for lighting. The property produces 0.5 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is very low for a UK home.
