About This Property
This detached house is located in LLANDYSUL, SA44 5HE. The property offers 160m² (1722 sq ft) of spacious living space with 5 habitable rooms. It is a recently constructed modern home. With an EPC rating of B (85/100), this property is highly energy efficient, placing it in the top tier of UK homes. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a A rating (99/100). 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 roof space has been converted to living space, with insulation between the rafters. 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 £1143, comprising £928 for heating, £111 for hot water, and £104 for lighting.
