About This Property
This flat is located in ASHTON-UNDER-LYNE, OL6 7SZ. The property offers 54m² (581 sq ft) of modest-sized living space with 3 habitable rooms. It is a post-war property from the mid-20th century. With an EPC rating of D (63/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (78/100). The gas central heating system has good efficiency, indicating a relatively modern, well-maintained boiler. The property has modern timber frame or system-built walls, which typically offer good insulation properties when properly maintained. The flat roof has poor insulation.

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 £1089, comprising £859 for heating, £185 for hot water, and £45 for lighting. The property produces 2.9 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is low for a UK home.
