About This Property

This semi-detached flat is located in SEVENOAKS, TN15 0QA. The property offers 139m² (1496 sq ft) of spacious living space with 3 habitable rooms. It is a period property with Victorian or earlier origins. With an EPC rating of D (68/100), this property is around the UK average 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.

Estimated annual energy costs are £1439, comprising £933 for heating, £308 for hot water, and £198 for lighting. The property produces 3.3 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.
