About This Property

This detached house is located in LEEDS, LS16 8AJ. The property offers 243m² (2616 sq ft) of generously-sized living space with 9 habitable rooms. It is a post-war property from the mid-20th century. The property holds an EPC rating of C (74/100), meeting the government's target standard for energy efficiency. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a B rating (82/100). 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 loft insulation is rated very good, meeting or exceeding the recommended 270mm depth for optimal thermal performance. 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 £2192, comprising £1887 for heating, £180 for hot water, and £125 for lighting. The property produces 8.2 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home.
