About This Property
This detached flat is located in ILFRACOMBE, EX34 9BH. The property offers 77m² (829 sq ft) of modest-sized living space. It is a recently constructed modern home. With an EPC rating of D (55/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency. 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. Modern double glazing with very good efficiency is installed, likely featuring low-emissivity (low-E) coating for optimal thermal performance. Estimated annual energy costs are £1344, comprising £926 for heating, £353 for hot water, and £65 for lighting. The property produces 3.7 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is low for a UK home.
