About This Property
This detached house is located in LONDON, W9 1RR. The property offers 302m² (3251 sq ft) of generously-sized living space with 10 habitable rooms. It is a characterful interwar or early 20th century home. The property holds an EPC rating of C (70/100), meeting the government's target standard for energy efficiency.

Double glazing is installed throughout the property, providing good thermal and acoustic insulation. Estimated annual energy costs are £1724, comprising £1393 for heating, £140 for hot water, and £191 for lighting. The property produces 8.5 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home.
