About This Property

This semi-detached house is located in HEYWOOD, OL10 1EU. The property offers 56.88m² (612 sq ft) of modest-sized living space with 3 habitable rooms. It is a post-war property from the mid-20th century. With an EPC rating of D (66/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency. The property benefits from a highly efficient gas central heating system, likely a modern condensing boiler achieving 90%+ efficiency. The pitched roof lacks adequate insulation. Topping up loft insulation to 270mm (the recommended depth) typically costs £300-£500 and could save £150-£250 annually, with the investment often paying for itself within 2-3 years. 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 £544, comprising £422 for heating, £72 for hot water, and £50 for lighting. The property produces 2.8 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is low for a UK home. For landlords: This rental property with a D rating is positioned above the current minimum standard. With proposed changes to require a C rating by 2028, modest improvements now could future-proof your compliance.
