Property details:

1980s detached house in Reabrook. Open plan main living space downstairs with integral garage. Upstairs 4-bedrooms with bathroom. Cavity wall insulation and well insulated roof space.

What changes have been made?

In 2015 solar panels on roof with boost to the immersion heater when producing more electricity than I use - a fabulous add-on benefit. Also that year a gas hob was replaced for an electric induction hob and electric oven. In 2016 a small east facing extension (well insulated) to dining/living space adding solar gain. In Spring 2022, disconnected gas warm air heating and installed an air source heat pump (ASHP) unit downstairs. This was amazingly effective last winter but left upstairs unheated and rather cold at times. Finally in September 2023 an integral air to air ASHP upstairs was installed. I'm anticipating its warm air will diffuse between rooms with doors open during afternoon/evenings.

Access/parking:

Sloped gravel path. If possible, park at the back of Sainsbury's in Reabrook and walk 5 minutes along the road or the path along the Rea Brook. Easy access on foot or by bicycle.
