About This Property
This detached house is located in Cheltenham, GL54 3JU. The property offers 254m² (2734 sq ft) of generously-sized living space with 9 habitable rooms. It is a modern property built in the 2000s. With an EPC rating of D (68/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a B rating (83/100). 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 property has good loft insulation, though topping up to the recommended 270mm depth could provide additional energy savings. 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 £1856, comprising £1514 for heating, £171 for hot water, and £171 for lighting. The property produces 8.5 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home.
