About This Property

This semi-detached bungalow is located in EXETER, EX2 8TE. The property offers 120m² (1292 sq ft) of spacious living space with 5 habitable rooms. It is built during the 1980s construction period. With an EPC rating of D (60/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (80/100). The gas central heating system has good efficiency, indicating a relatively modern, well-maintained boiler. The walls feature cavity wall insulation for improved thermal efficiency. The flat roof has poor insulation. Flat roof insulation is more complex but essential for preventing heat loss and condensation issues, typically costing £1,000-£3,000 depending on access and method. 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 £1185, comprising £988 for heating, £106 for hot water, and £91 for lighting. The property produces 4.9 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is moderate for a UK home.
