TECHNICAL:

The entire house is based on electricity - except the second hob (gas - just in case there is a power outage). The heating system was recently upgraded to the latest state of the art Ecovolt Ceramic heaters. Every room is well insulated. A solar PV system was installed 2 years ago, resulting in the summer exporting excess electricity to the grid and only requiring the grid in winter.
Water is heated by the Ecovolt system that heats the water with the solar PV and during summer uses the hot attic to convert the heat into hot water via an air to water heat pump.

The heating radiators are controlled via one central touchscreen at the hot press, the latest ones can be controlled via an app remotely or directly at the radiator. It requires a bit of learning but the benefits are obvious. They can be controlled via Alexa and so on, IF one wants to. The owners themselves opted against it but the Google Home system can also be connected as well as other systems. If interested, more details can be provided on request.

The price includes all electricity, bin and water charges, subject to fair usage agreement.

Available on a part furnished basis.
