The apartment itself
The listing gives no details about the layout, so it is not clear how many rooms or bedrooms the home has, or whether there is a garden or balcony. The year of construction, 1968, is a fact, but the listing does not say anything about the condition of the home. The energy label E is stated, which is the least efficient label, so heating costs are likely to be noticeable. For the rest, the details are left to the imagination, and the listing does not mention any installations or ownership arrangements.
