About This Property
This terraced flat is located in WOOLACOMBE, EX34 7AQ. The property offers 84m² (904 sq ft) of good-sized living space with 3 habitable rooms. It is a 1990s-era home. With an EPC rating of D (61/100), 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. 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 £961, comprising £646 for heating, £220 for hot water, and £95 for lighting. The property produces 3.7 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is low for a UK home.
