Why Does This Property Have a G Rating?
This semi-detached house is located in LUTTERWORTH, LE17 6AG. The property offers 131m² (1410 sq ft) of spacious living space with 4 habitable rooms. It is a characterful interwar or early 20th century home. Currently rated G (4/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a E rating (44/100). The solid walls lack insulation. Solid wall insulation (external or internal) typically costs £8,000-£14,000 but can reduce heat loss by up to 35% and improve your EPC rating by 1-2 bands. Triple-glazed windows provide excellent insulation, reducing heat loss by up to 40% compared to single glazing and offering superior noise reduction of up to 35dB. Estimated annual energy costs are £9947, comprising £8265 for heating, £1318 for hot water, and £364 for lighting. The property produces 15.0 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home.
