The asking price is 26% above the average asking price in Hillegersberg Zuid (€512,949). However, this apartment is 47% larger than the neighbourhood average (157 m² vs 107 m²), so the higher price partly reflects the extra space. Whether it is fair depends on how much you value the pre-war character and generous layout.

The energy label is C. This is a reasonable rating for a pre-war apartment from 1930. You can expect moderate energy costs, but it is not as efficient as a modern home. In the neighbourhood, 23% of homes have label C, while 44.8% have a lower rating.
