About This Property

This terraced flat is located in LONDON, SW1V 4EB. The property offers 35mยฒ (377 sq ft) of compact living space with 2 habitable rooms. It is a period property with Victorian or earlier origins. The property holds an EPC rating of C (70/100), meeting the government's target standard for energy efficiency. The gas central heating system has good efficiency, indicating a relatively modern, well-maintained boiler. 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. 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 ยฃ400-ยฃ600 per window but improves thermal comfort and can reduce noise by up to 30dB. Estimated annual energy costs are ยฃ443, comprising ยฃ289 for heating, ยฃ104 for hot water, and ยฃ50 for lighting. The property produces 1.5 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is very low for a UK home.
