About This Property
This terraced flat is located in FAREHAM, PO16 7FR. The property offers 70m² (753 sq ft) of modest-sized living space with 3 habitable rooms. It is a recently constructed modern 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. The walls feature cavity wall insulation with good efficiency ratings, providing solid thermal performance. 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 £1462, comprising £883 for heating, £528 for hot water, and £51 for lighting. The property produces 0.8 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is very low for a UK home.
