About This Property
This detached house is located in SLEAFORD, NG34 9PA. The property offers 201m² (2164 sq ft) of generously-sized living space with 7 habitable rooms. It is a modern property built in the 2000s. The property holds an EPC rating of C (73/100), meeting the government's target standard for energy efficiency. Heating is provided by oil-fired central heating.

The walls feature cavity wall insulation with good efficiency ratings, providing solid thermal performance. The loft insulation is rated very good, meeting or exceeding the recommended 270mm depth for optimal thermal performance. 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 £1737, comprising £1259 for heating, £306 for hot water, and £172 for lighting. The property produces 5.1 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is moderate for a UK home.
