About This E-Rated Property
This detached bungalow is located in CALLINGTON, PL17 8PZ. The property offers 65mยฒ (700 sq ft) of modest-sized living space with 3 habitable rooms. It is a post-war property from the mid-20th century. The property has an EPC rating of E (48/100), which is below average but still meets minimum rental requirements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (77/100). 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. 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 ยฃ1440, comprising ยฃ991 for heating, ยฃ408 for hot water, and ยฃ41 for lighting. The property produces 4.5 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is moderate for a UK home.
