The apartment itself
The agent describes this as an apartment with three rooms, and the living area is listed at 89 square metres. According to the BAG registration, the living area is 85 square metres, so the two figures differ slightly. The home dates from 1965, which is a fact about its age rather than a comment on its condition. Energy label E means the home is not among the most efficient, so heating costs are likely to be on the higher side.
