About Herculeslaan 124, Utrecht
The asking price of €785,000 is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average, but the apartment is modern (2006), has a large floor area of 120 m², and an excellent energy label A. These features justify a premium. Without comparable sales data for the exact street, it's best to look at recent sale prices of similar apartments in Utrecht Oost to gauge the market.
The energy label is A, which is very efficient. This means the home has good insulation and modern heating systems, keeping energy costs relatively low. You won't face the high heating bills associated with older, poorly insulated homes.
The nearest train station is 2.7 km away, which is about a 30-minute walk or a short bus ride.
