The energy label is D. That's typical for a house built in 1920, many homes of that era have labels D or lower. A D label means the home is moderately efficient; you can expect reasonable heating costs, but not as low as a modern, well-insulated home. The neighbourhood has no homes with labels A or B, and half are C, half D or lower.
