About This Property
This semi-detached house is located in STEVENAGE, SG1 2PE. The property offers 179m² (1927 sq ft) of spacious living space with 8 habitable rooms. It is a characterful interwar or early 20th century home. The property holds an EPC rating of C (76/100), meeting the government's target standard for energy efficiency. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a B rating (82/100). The gas central heating system has good efficiency, indicating a relatively modern, well-maintained boiler. The solid walls lack insulation. Solid wall insulation (external or internal) typically costs £8,000-£14,000 but can reduce heat loss by up to 35% and improve your EPC rating by 1-2 bands. 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 £1552, comprising £1219 for heating, £244 for hot water, and £89 for lighting. The property produces 4.3 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is moderate for a UK home.
