About This E-Rated Property

This detached bungalow is located in FILEY, YO14 0ER. The property offers 125mยฒ (1346 sq ft) of spacious living space with 5 habitable rooms. It is a post-war property from the mid-20th century. The property has an EPC rating of E (47/100), which is below average but still meets minimum rental requirements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (80/100). 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 walls feature cavity wall insulation for improved thermal efficiency. 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 ยฃ2152, comprising ยฃ1698 for heating, ยฃ224 for hot water, and ยฃ230 for lighting. The property produces 8.8 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home.
