About Emmastraat 8, Arnhem
The asking price is 50% above the neighbourhood average of €420,537, but the apartment is also 81% larger than the average (179 m² vs 99 m²). The price per square metre works out to about €3,514, which is below the neighbourhood average of €4,600 per m². So while the total price is high, the size makes it relatively good value per square metre.
The energy label is C, which is average for a home of this age. In the neighbourhood, 47.4% of homes have label C, and 21.1% have D or lower. Label C means the home is reasonably efficient, but you can expect moderate heating costs. The home was built in 1883, so original features like high ceilings may affect insulation.
