The energy label C is average for a home of this age, so heating costs will be moderate. There's no neighbourhood market data to compare directly, but the price feels reasonable given the size and location.

Energy label C means the home is reasonably efficient but not top-of-the-line. For a 1941 semi-detached house, it's a decent rating, you'll have some insulation and double glazing, but heating costs will be noticeable in winter.
