About This Property
This detached house is located in SLEAFORD, NG34 0LD. The property offers 244m² (2626 sq ft) of generously-sized living space with 7 habitable rooms. It is a characterful interwar or early 20th century home. With an EPC rating of D (63/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a A rating (99/100). 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 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 £3059, comprising £2729 for heating, £219 for hot water, and £111 for lighting. The property produces 11.0 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home.
