So it is priced keenly compared to other homes currently for sale in the area.
The home has energy label C. This is a reasonable rating for a 1933 terraced house. While not the most efficient, it is better than older homes with lower labels. You can expect moderate energy costs, but improvements like better insulation or double glazing could bring it up to a higher label.
