About This Property
This semi-detached flat is located in NEWCASTLE UPON TYNE, NE5 1JE. The property offers 61m² (657 sq ft) of modest-sized living space with 3 habitable rooms. It is built during the 1980s construction period. The property holds an EPC rating of C (71/100), meeting the government's target standard for energy efficiency. The gas central heating system has good efficiency, indicating a relatively modern, well-maintained boiler. The flat roof has poor insulation. Flat roof insulation is more complex but essential for preventing heat loss and condensation issues, typically costing £1,000-£3,000 depending on access and method. 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 £1340, comprising £977 for heating, £256 for hot water, and £107 for lighting. The property produces 2.5 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is low for a UK home.
