About This Property

This semi-detached flat is located in Warrington , WA2 0QH. The property offers 52m² (560 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 (61/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency.

Double glazing is installed throughout the property, providing good thermal and acoustic insulation. Estimated annual energy costs are £929, comprising £595 for heating, £283 for hot water, and £51 for lighting. The property produces 4.0 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is moderate 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.
