About This E-Rated Property
This detached house is located in CHELTENHAM, GL54 1ER. The property offers 195.79mยฒ (2107 sq ft) of generously-sized living space with 10 habitable rooms. It is built during the 1980s construction period. The property has an EPC rating of E (44/100), which is below average but still meets minimum rental requirements. The property uses electric storage heaters, which charge overnight on cheaper electricity tariffs. While having low installation costs, running costs are typically higher than gas central heating. A heat pump could reduce electricity use by 60-70%. The walls feature cavity wall insulation with good efficiency ratings, providing solid 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 ยฃ2908, comprising ยฃ2079 for heating, ยฃ512 for hot water, and ยฃ317 for lighting. The property produces 17.0 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home. For landlords: This property currently meets the minimum E rating requirement under MEES regulations. However, the government has proposed increasing the minimum to C by 2028 for new tenancies and 2030 for existing tenancies, so consider planning upgrades now.
