About This Property

This detached house is located in GLOUCESTER, GL2 7LS. The property offers 281m² (3025 sq ft) of generously-sized living space with 10 habitable rooms. It is a period property with Victorian or earlier origins. With an EPC rating of A (109/100), this property is highly energy efficient, placing it in the top tier of UK homes. 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. The roof space has been converted to living space, with insulation between the rafters. Estimated annual energy costs are £7669, comprising £6861 for heating, £525 for hot water, and £283 for lighting. The property produces 1.5 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is very low for a UK home.

How Does Jaxons Farm Compare?

With an energy efficiency score of 109/100, this GLOUCESTER property is outstanding, placing it in the top 3% of UK homes. Energy costs of £7669 annually are £5869 above the UK average. Improvements could reduce bills significantly. At 281m², this property is significantly larger than the average UK home (87m²). CO2 emissions of 1.5 tonnes/year are less than half the UK household average, making this an environmentally friendly choice.
