At a Glance
This detached house is located in NORWICH, NR3 4DG. The property offers 300m² (3229 sq ft) of generously-sized living space with 16 habitable rooms. It is a period property with Victorian or earlier origins. With an EPC rating of D (62/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (72/100). The gas central heating system has good efficiency, indicating a relatively modern, well-maintained boiler. The pitched roof lacks adequate insulation. Topping up loft insulation to 270mm (the recommended depth) typically costs £300-£500 and could save £150-£250 annually, with the investment often paying for itself within 2-3 years. Single glazing is a significant source of heat loss, accounting for up to 25% of a home's heat escaping through windows. Upgrading to double glazing typically costs £400-£600 per window but improves thermal comfort and can reduce noise by up to 30dB. Estimated annual energy costs are £2400, comprising £2085 for heating, £144 for hot water, and £171 for lighting. The property produces 12.0 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home. For landlords: This rental property with a D rating is positioned above the current minimum standard. With proposed changes to require a C rating by 2028, modest improvements now could future-proof your compliance.
With an energy efficiency score of 62/100, this NORWICH property is around the national average for UK homes. Energy costs of £2400 annually are £600 above the UK average. Improvements could reduce bills significantly. At 300m², this property is significantly larger than the average UK home (87m²). CO2 emissions of 12.0 tonnes/year are above average.
