About This Property

This terraced flat is located in LEIGH-ON-SEA, SS9 2HA. The property offers 72.71m² (783 sq ft) of modest-sized living space with 2 habitable rooms. It is a characterful interwar or early 20th century home. With an EPC rating of D (58/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency. 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 solid walls lack insulation. Solid wall insulation (external or internal) typically costs £8,000-£14,000 but can reduce heat loss by up to 35% and improve your EPC rating by 1-2 bands. 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 £608, comprising £439 for heating, £132 for hot water, and £37 for lighting. The property produces 5.3 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is moderate for a UK home. The property last sold in June 2018 for £212,500.
