About This Property
This terraced flat is located in Buckinghamshire, HP27 9AJ. The property offers 70m² (753 sq ft) of modest-sized living space. The property holds an EPC rating of C (73/100), meeting the government's target standard for energy efficiency. The oil-fired central heating has poor efficiency. Oil boilers are more expensive to run than gas and have higher carbon emissions. Consider switching to a heat pump (eligible for £7,500 BUS grant) for significant long-term savings. 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 £1458, comprising £650 for heating, £685 for hot water, and £123 for lighting. The property produces 2.5 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is low for a UK home.
