The label is a fact about the property, not a comment on its condition. No insulation details are given in the listing.

The foundation risk indication for this address is medium. This is based on the building being constructed before 1970, and the postcode area being a KCAF attention zone where 100 percent of properties were built before 1970. The soil type is sand.
