About Banstraat 27A, Amsterdam
The asking price is 26% above the neighbourhood average of €2,860,000, but the apartment is also 106% larger than the average (500 m² vs 243 m²) and was built in 2016, whereas most homes in the area date from before 1945. The price per square metre works out at around €7,200, which is below the neighbourhood average of €11,366 per m².

Only 17% of homes for sale in the Banpleinbuurt have an A+ label, so this is a standout feature.
