This terraced house is located in BRISTOL, BS6 6NN. The property offers 134m² (1442 sq ft) of spacious living space with 6 habitable rooms. It is a characterful interwar or early 20th century home. The property has an EPC rating of E (54/100), which is below average but still meets minimum rental requirements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a B rating (81/100). The gas central heating system has good efficiency, indicating a relatively modern, well-maintained boiler. Single glazing is a significant source of heat loss, accounting for up to 25% of a home's heat escaping through windows. Upgrading to double glazing typically costs £400-£600 per window but improves thermal comfort and can reduce noise by up to 30dB. Estimated annual energy costs are £1403, comprising £1178 for heating, £120 for hot water, and £105 for lighting. The property produces 7.4 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is above average for a UK home. The property last sold in September 2015 for £545,000.
