Flat 2 Bethrapha, Park Hill

Why Does This Property Have a F Rating?

This terraced house is located in OXFORD, OX33 1PB. The property offers 88m² (947 sq ft) of good-sized living space with 4 habitable rooms. It is a period property with Victorian or earlier origins. Currently rated F (33/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a A rating (105/100). 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. Double glazing is installed throughout the property, providing good thermal and acoustic insulation. Estimated annual energy costs are £1756, comprising £1489 for heating, £204 for hot water, and £63 for lighting. The property produces 8.6 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home. IMPORTANT FOR LANDLORDS: With an EPC rating of F, this property does not meet the Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards (MEES). Since April 2020, landlords cannot legally let properties rated F or G without registering a valid exemption. Penalties for non-compliance can reach up to £30,000. Immediate improvements are required to bring the property to at least an E rating.
