About This Property

This detached bungalow is located in EATON BRAY, LU6 2BQ. The property offers 73m² (786 sq ft) of modest-sized living space with 2 habitable rooms. It is a recently constructed modern home. With an EPC rating of B (83/100), this property is highly energy efficient, placing it in the top tier of UK homes. 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 £945, comprising £641 for heating, £177 for hot water, and £127 for lighting. The property produces 0.5 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is very low for a UK home.

How Does Brodie Stables Compare?

With an energy efficiency score of 83/100, this EATON BRAY property is excellent, ranking in the top 15% nationally. Annual energy costs of £945 are approximately £855 below the UK average of £1800, representing significant savings. CO2 emissions of 0.5 tonnes/year are less than half the UK household average, making this an environmentally friendly choice.
