About This Property
This detached house is located in OAKHAM, LE15 8DD. The property offers 162mยฒ (1744 sq ft) of spacious living space with 7 habitable rooms. With an EPC rating of D (66/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a B rating (88/100).

Double glazing is installed throughout the property, providing good thermal and acoustic insulation. Estimated annual energy costs are ยฃ1342, comprising ยฃ1030 for heating, ยฃ226 for hot water, and ยฃ86 for lighting. The property produces 3.6 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is low for a UK home.
