Agent Notes
Goonhoskyn Farmhouse is newly refurbished following an extensive programme of refurbishment and redecoration. This includes fitting internal insulation to all of the exterior walls and relining with new plaster and paintwork. The property is well insulated and fitted with an oil fired central heating system with radiators throughout, and a large array of solar PV panels. The occupants of Goonhoskyn Farmhouse will therefore benefit from any free electricity that is generated by the panels during daylight hours. Furthermore, any unused or surplus electricity is directed to the hot water storage tank and the bathroom heated towel rail to further reduce costs. As a consequence of these improvements, Goonhoskyn Farmhouse benefits from an excellent EPC rating of B(86).
