About This E-Rated Property

This detached house is located in WETHERBY, LS22 5EU. The property offers 333m² (3584 sq ft) of generously-sized living space with 9 habitable rooms. It is a period property with Victorian or earlier origins. The property has an EPC rating of E (39/100), which is below average but still meets minimum rental requirements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (71/100). 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 solid walls lack insulation. Solid wall insulation (external or internal) typically costs £8,000-£14,000 but can reduce heat loss by up to 35% and improve your EPC rating by 1-2 bands. 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 £3549, comprising £2753 for heating, £553 for hot water, and £243 for lighting. The property produces 24.0 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home.
