About This E-Rated Property
This terraced flat is located in BIRMINGHAM, B20 2NX. The property offers 59m² (635 sq ft) of modest-sized living space with 4 habitable rooms. It is a post-war property from the mid-20th century. The property has an EPC rating of E (43/100), which is below average but still meets minimum rental requirements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (78/100). The property has modern timber frame or system-built walls, which typically offer good insulation properties when properly maintained. The flat roof has poor insulation. Flat roof insulation is more complex but essential for preventing heat loss and condensation issues, typically costing £1,000-£3,000 depending on access and method. Double glazing is installed throughout the property, providing good thermal and acoustic insulation. Estimated annual energy costs are £1233, comprising £655 for heating, £533 for hot water, and £45 for lighting. The property produces 3.9 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is low for a UK home.
