About This Property
This detached house is located in Bedale, DL8 1JL. The property offers 1050m² (11302 sq ft) of generously-sized living space with 12 habitable rooms. It is a period property with Victorian or earlier origins. With an EPC rating of D (55/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (73/100). The oil-fired central heating has poor efficiency. Oil boilers are more expensive to run than gas and have higher carbon emissions. Consider switching to a heat pump (eligible for £7,500 BUS grant) for significant long-term savings. The loft insulation is rated very good, meeting or exceeding the recommended 270mm depth for optimal thermal performance. Single glazing is a significant source of heat loss, accounting for up to 25% of a home's heat escaping through windows. Upgrading to double glazing typically costs £400-£600 per window but improves thermal comfort and can reduce noise by up to 30dB. Estimated annual energy costs are £18065, comprising £17214 for heating, £510 for hot water, and £341 for lighting. The property produces 9.6 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home.
