About This Property

This terraced house is located in ASHBY-DE-LA-ZOUCH, LE65 2HW. The property offers 87m² (936 sq ft) of good-sized living space with 5 habitable rooms. It is a post-war property from the mid-20th century. The property holds an EPC rating of C (71/100), meeting the government's target standard for energy efficiency. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a B rating (88/100). The property uses electric storage heaters, which charge overnight on cheaper electricity tariffs. While having low installation costs, running costs are typically higher than gas central heating. A heat pump could reduce electricity use by 60-70%. The property has modern timber frame or system-built walls, which typically offer good insulation properties when properly maintained. The loft insulation is rated very good, meeting or exceeding the recommended 270mm depth for optimal thermal performance. 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 £1658, comprising £1330 for heating, £205 for hot water, and £123 for lighting. The property produces 4.6 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is moderate for a UK home.
