About This Property

This terraced maisonette is located in LONDON, SE3 7TF. The property offers 65.4m² (704 sq ft) of modest-sized living space with 3 habitable rooms. It is built during the 1980s construction period. With an EPC rating of D (62/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (74/100).

A heat pump could reduce electricity use by 60-70%. The walls feature cavity wall insulation for improved thermal efficiency. 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 £712, comprising £524 for heating, £111 for hot water, and £77 for lighting. The property produces 5.1 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is moderate for a UK home. The property last sold in January 2021 for £443,000, with 2 recorded sales in our database. For landlords: This rental property with a D rating is positioned above the current minimum standard.
