About This Property
This detached house is located in YORK, YO23 7BR. The property offers 261m² (2809 sq ft) of generously-sized living space with 10 habitable rooms. It is a recently constructed modern home. The property holds an EPC rating of C (71/100), meeting the government's target standard 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 cavity walls have excellent insulation, contributing significantly to the property's thermal efficiency and helping maintain stable indoor temperatures year-round. The property has good loft insulation, though topping up to the recommended 270mm depth could provide additional energy savings. Double glazing is installed throughout the property, providing good thermal and acoustic insulation. Estimated annual energy costs are £2369, comprising £1907 for heating, £289 for hot water, and £173 for lighting. The property produces 4.1 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is moderate for a UK home. The property last sold in September 2021 for £705,000.
