About This Property
This detached house is located in BASINGSTOKE, RG24 7AA. The property offers 876m² (9429 sq ft) of generously-sized living space with 15 habitable rooms. It is a period property with Victorian or earlier origins. The property holds an EPC rating of C (70/100), meeting the government's target standard for energy efficiency. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a B rating (85/100). This property benefits from a air source heat pump system, which can deliver 3-4 units of heat for every unit of electricity used. Heat pumps are eligible for the £7,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant, making them increasingly popular for UK homes seeking to reduce carbon emissions. 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 £8841, comprising £8292 for heating, £312 for hot water, and £237 for lighting. The property produces 14.0 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home.
