Passed this at the weekend, good location and the courtyard looks lovely, but a bit of cognitive dissonance from:
(a) Built in 1999 to the highest of standards
(b) BER F
I suspect the culprit (from the ad) is: “Electric under floor central heating with electric ceiling heating”. I’ve never heard of electric ceiling heating but it seems like a great way to attract stray heat-seeking missiles.
I can’t find any references to that in the BER report…
BER advisory report: (PDF)

…which like all of them seems to mostly be a copy/paste of general recommendations with specific assessments thin on the ground.
Taking the BER numbers (420.02 (kWh/m2/yr)) at face value gives 134400kWh/year, or €20k per annum at 15c/kWh. I wonder if you’d get planning for a wind farm?
