About This Property

This detached flat is located in CIRENCESTER, GL7 5RL. The property offers 103m² (1109 sq ft) of good-sized living space with 5 habitable rooms. It is a recently constructed modern home. With an EPC rating of D (59/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency. The oil-fired central heating has poor efficiency.

The property has modern timber frame or system-built walls, which typically offer good insulation properties when properly maintained. The loft insulation is rated very good, meeting or exceeding the recommended 270mm depth for optimal thermal performance. Double glazing is installed throughout the property, providing good thermal and acoustic insulation. Estimated annual energy costs are £933, comprising £662 for heating, £148 for hot water, and £123 for lighting. The property produces 3.1 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is low for a UK home. For landlords: This rental property with a D rating is positioned above the current minimum standard. With proposed changes to require a C rating by 2028, modest improvements now could future-proof your compliance.
