This terraced flat is located in LONDON, SE4 2SD. The property offers 110m² (1184 sq ft) of good-sized living space with 3 habitable rooms. It is a characterful interwar or early 20th century home. Currently rated G (1/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (76/100). The solid walls lack insulation. Solid wall insulation (external or internal) typically costs £8,000-£14,000 but can reduce heat loss by up to 35% and improve your EPC rating by 1-2 bands. 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 throughout the property, providing good thermal and acoustic insulation. Estimated annual energy costs are £3124, comprising £2528 for heating, £527 for hot water, and £69 for lighting. The property produces 27.0 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home.
