About Beukelaarsstraat 139, Rotterdam
The asking price of €395,000 is 33% above the neighbourhood average of €296,582. However, this apartment is also 26% larger than the average (98 m² vs 78 m²) and has an A energy label, which is more efficient than most homes in Hillesluis. Given the size and modern features, the price is in line with what you'd expect for a property of this standard.
An A energy label means the home is very energy-efficient, so you can expect relatively low heating and electricity bills compared to older homes with lower labels. In Hillesluis, only 30% of homes have label A, and 6% have A+, so this apartment is among the more efficient ones in the area.
