About This Property
This semi-detached flat is located in NORWICH, NR13 6DD. The property offers 38m² (409 sq ft) of compact living space with 1 habitable room. It is a 1990s-era home. With an EPC rating of D (68/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (73/100). Heating is provided by oil-fired central heating. While effective, oil prices can be volatile and the system produces higher carbon emissions than gas or heat pumps. The walls feature cavity wall insulation with good efficiency ratings, providing solid thermal performance. The roof space has been converted to living space, with insulation between the rafters. 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 £385, comprising £206 for heating, £136 for hot water, and £43 for lighting. The property produces 2.3 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is low for a UK home.
