About This Property
This detached house is located in WEETON WITH PREESE, PR4 3HS. The property offers 290m² (3122 sq ft) of generously-sized living space with 10 habitable rooms. It is a 1990s-era home. The property holds an EPC rating of C (69/100), meeting the government's target standard for energy efficiency. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a B rating (86/100). 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 with good efficiency ratings, providing solid thermal performance. The property has good loft insulation, though topping up to the recommended 270mm depth could provide additional energy savings. 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 £2954, comprising £2502 for heating, £254 for hot water, and £198 for lighting. The property produces 10.0 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home.
