About This Property
This terraced house is located in BRISTOL, BS8 3PU. The property offers 162m² (1744 sq ft) of spacious living space with 5 habitable rooms. It is a post-war property from the mid-20th century. With an EPC rating of D (55/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (71/100). This property benefits from a ground source heat pump system, which can deliver 3-4 units of heat for every unit of electricity used. Heat pumps are eligible for the £7,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant, making them increasingly popular for UK homes seeking to reduce carbon emissions. The walls feature cavity wall insulation for improved thermal efficiency. 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. Triple-glazed windows provide excellent insulation, reducing heat loss by up to 40% compared to single glazing and offering superior noise reduction of up to 35dB. Estimated annual energy costs are £1998, comprising £1556 for heating, £336 for hot water, and £106 for lighting. The property produces 5.4 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is moderate for a UK home.
