About This Property

This detached house is located in NANTWICH, CW5 8PA. The property offers 109.21m² (1176 sq ft) of good-sized living space with 9 habitable rooms. It is a period property with Victorian or earlier origins. With an EPC rating of D (57/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency. 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 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. The roof space has been converted to living space, with insulation between the rafters. Double glazing is installed throughout the property, providing good thermal and acoustic insulation. Estimated annual energy costs are £1887, comprising £1591 for heating, £151 for hot water, and £145 for lighting. The property produces 9.6 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home.
