About This Property

This detached house is located in MILTON KEYNES, MK17 0LN. The property offers 216m² (2325 sq ft) of generously-sized living space with 8 habitable rooms. It is built during the 1980s construction period. With an EPC rating of D (65/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a B rating (83/100). This property benefits from a air source heat pump system, which can deliver 3-4 units of heat for every unit of electricity used.

The walls feature cavity wall insulation for improved thermal efficiency. The loft insulation is rated very good, meeting or exceeding the recommended 270mm depth for optimal thermal performance.
