About This E-Rated Property
This detached bungalow is located in BISHOP'S STORTFORD, CM22 6SY. The property offers 322m² (3466 sq ft) of generously-sized living space with 8 habitable rooms. It is built during the 1980s construction period. The property has an EPC rating of E (53/100), which is below average but still meets minimum rental requirements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (72/100). The oil-fired central heating has poor efficiency. Oil boilers are more expensive to run than gas and have higher carbon emissions. Consider switching to a heat pump (eligible for £7,500 BUS grant) for significant long-term savings. The loft insulation is rated very good, meeting or exceeding the recommended 270mm depth for optimal thermal performance. 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 £2411, comprising £2020 for heating, £201 for hot water, and £190 for lighting. The property produces 14.0 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home.
