About This Property
This terraced flat is located in YORK, YO31 7NS. The property offers 112m² (1206 sq ft) of good-sized living space with 4 habitable rooms. It is built during the 1980s construction period. The property holds an EPC rating of C (72/100), meeting the government's target standard for energy efficiency. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a B rating (85/100). The property uses electric storage heaters, which charge overnight on cheaper electricity tariffs. While having low installation costs, running costs are typically higher than gas central heating. A heat pump could reduce electricity use by 60-70%. Single glazing is a significant source of heat loss, accounting for up to 25% of a home's heat escaping through windows. Upgrading to double glazing typically costs £400-£600 per window but improves thermal comfort and can reduce noise by up to 30dB. Estimated annual energy costs are £1754, comprising £1256 for heating, £304 for hot water, and £194 for lighting. The property produces 5.3 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is moderate for a UK home.
