About This Property
This semi-detached house is located in LUTTERWORTH, LE17 4LB. The property offers 88m² (947 sq ft) of good-sized living space with 4 habitable rooms. It is a modern property built in the 2000s. With an EPC rating of D (66/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency. The oil-fired central heating has poor efficiency. Oil boilers are more expensive to run than gas and have higher carbon emissions. Consider switching to a heat pump (eligible for £7,500 BUS grant) for significant long-term savings. The walls feature cavity wall insulation with good efficiency ratings, providing solid thermal performance. The roof space has been converted to living space, with insulation between the rafters. 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 £2144, comprising £1653 for heating, £425 for hot water, and £66 for lighting. The property produces 1.2 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is very low for a UK home.
