About This Property
This detached bungalow is located in Ledwell Chipping Norton , OX7 7AN. The property offers 26m² (280 sq ft) of compact living space with 1 habitable room. It is a recently constructed modern home. With an EPC rating of D (59/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a B rating (83/100). 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 cavity walls have excellent insulation, contributing significantly to the property's thermal efficiency and helping maintain stable indoor temperatures year-round. The property has good loft insulation, though topping up to the recommended 270mm depth could provide additional energy savings. Double glazing is installed throughout the property, providing good thermal and acoustic insulation. Estimated annual energy costs are £1199, comprising £862 for heating, £265 for hot water, and £72 for lighting. The property produces 2.0 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is low for a UK home.
