About This E-Rated Property

This detached bungalow is located in PETERBOROUGH, PE6 7RZ. The property offers 121.42mยฒ (1307 sq ft) of spacious living space with 5 habitable rooms. It is built during the 1980s construction period. The property has an EPC rating of E (46/100), which is below average but still meets minimum rental requirements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a D rating (64/100). The gas central heating system has average efficiency, indicating a boiler that may be 10-15 years old. While functional, upgrading to a modern A-rated condensing boiler could improve efficiency by 15-25%. 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 ยฃ1365, comprising ยฃ1075 for heating, ยฃ177 for hot water, and ยฃ113 for lighting. The property produces 7.3 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is above average for a UK home. The property last sold in August 2019 for ยฃ248,000. For landlords: This property currently meets the minimum E rating requirement under MEES regulations. However, the government has proposed increasing the minimum to C by 2028 for new tenancies and 2030 for existing tenancies, so consider planning upgrades now.
