About Keizersgracht 223A, Amsterdam
The asking price is 100% above the neighbourhood average of €2,047,568, but the home is also 52% larger than the typical 168 m². At €16,016/m², it's above the neighbourhood average of €13,167/m². Given the prime canal location and monumental status, the price is on the high side but reflects the unique size and setting.
The energy label is E, which is common for pre-1945 buildings (94.6% of homes in the neighbourhood are from before 1945). An E label means higher energy costs compared to modern homes, so you should expect significant heating bills, especially in winter.
