4 bed detached house for sale

Carnoustie Close, Grantham NG31

Please quote TR0236 – A video tour with commentary, 360 degree virtual tour and A key facts for buyers report is available on this listing – An exceptionally rare EPC A rating, owned solar panels with battery storage and four genuine double bedrooms make this detached Carnoustie Close home stand out from the crowd. Owned by the current seller since 2018, it has been thoughtfully improved with a replacement kitchen, utility room and ensuite among the upgrades. Offering just over 1,100 sq ft, there is a reception hall, cloakroom, light and bright full-width lounge diner opening onto the south-east facing garden, breakfast kitchen and utility. Upstairs, there really is no box room, with four bedrooms capable of accommodating double beds. The principal has fitted wardrobes and a refitted ensuite, while bedroom four is currently a versatile snug/home office. The owned solar and battery system helps reduce reliance on the grid, while surplus generation can also heat the hot water. Outside is an enclosed garden, driveway parking for three cars and a garage.

Solar panels & energy efficiency - Installed in April 2023 with the relevant mcs certification, the property benefits from an owned 5kW solar pv system comprising 12 panels positioned on the south-east facing rear roof, together with a 5.8kWh battery and iBoost hot-water system. Electricity generated by the panels is used intelligently: The home's immediate electricity demand is supplied first, with surplus solar energy then used to charge the battery for use later in the day or overnight. Once the battery is fully charged, further surplus energy is directed by the iBoost to the immersion heater, helping to heat the property's stored hot water. Only after these requirements have been met is any remaining surplus electricity exported back to the grid. The current owners advise that the system has materially reduced their reliance on purchased energy and their household energy costs. Their supplier's figures show total energy costs of £1,530.23 in 2023, £1,208.60 in 2024 and £1,138.80 in 2025, compared with the supplier's respective estimates of £2,256.37, £1,807.79 and £1,685.84 for similar homes. Costs will naturally vary according to individual usage, tariffs and solar generation, but the system forms an important part of this home's particularly impressive and rare EPC Rating A.
