About This Property
This terraced house is located in NORTHAMPTON, NN1 3JU. The property offers 124m² (1335 sq ft) of spacious living space with 5 habitable rooms. It is a modern property built in the 2000s. With an EPC rating of D (58/100), 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 £2726, comprising £2179 for heating, £448 for hot water, and £99 for lighting. The property produces 1.7 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is very low for a UK home.
