About This Property
This terraced flat is located in LONDON, SW7 5JX. The property offers 70m² (753 sq ft) of modest-sized living space with 3 habitable rooms. It is a period property with Victorian or earlier origins. With an EPC rating of D (61/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency. This property benefits from a air source heat pump system, which can deliver 3-4 units of heat for every unit of electricity used. Heat pumps are eligible for the £7,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant, making them increasingly popular for UK homes seeking to reduce carbon emissions. 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. Estimated annual energy costs are £655, comprising £335 for heating, £282 for hot water, and £38 for lighting. The property produces 2.3 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is low 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.
