About This E-Rated Property

This terraced flat is located in LONDON, SE20 7JA. The property offers 41mยฒ (441 sq ft) of compact living space with 2 habitable rooms. It is a characterful interwar or early 20th century home. The property has an EPC rating of E (54/100), which is below average but still meets minimum rental requirements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (71/100). Underfloor heating provides even heat distribution and works particularly well with heat pumps due to the lower water temperatures required. The solid walls lack insulation. Solid wall insulation (external or internal) typically costs ยฃ8,000-ยฃ14,000 but can reduce heat loss by up to 35% and improve your EPC rating by 1-2 bands. Double glazing is installed throughout the property, providing good thermal and acoustic insulation. Estimated annual energy costs are ยฃ758, comprising ยฃ561 for heating, ยฃ164 for hot water, and ยฃ33 for lighting. The property produces 2.3 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is low for a UK home.
