Council tax, probably band A but in a nice area you'll be looking at about £100 a month. There is discounts if one of you is a student / disabled / under 18.
Im paying about £90 a month for my Band B house but with a 25% single person discount.
Electric it depends how much you want the heaters and hot water on, you gotta be really careful with the electric hot water cos it'll ra*e your bill if you leave it on. I have mine on for an hour about once every 2-3 days only, any other time I boil the kettle for hot water. The storage heaters get expensive when you start getting into the boost control range. I've got my heaters set to about 3 on the main control and no boost, you'll learn to start putting on more clothes rather than having heating the first time you have a £100+ electric bill. Id expect £50-£100 on electric a month if you have no gas powered things. Summer if your good you can get down to about £30 a month.
