About Knopstraat 21, Utrecht
The asking price of €350,000 is 24% below the neighbourhood average of €461,680, but the apartment is also smaller than average (47 m² vs 77 m²). The price per square metre works out at about €7,447, which is above the neighbourhood average of €6,268 per m². So while the total price is low, you're paying a premium for the compact size.
The apartment has energy label D. This is a mid-range label, not particularly efficient, but not the worst either. In the neighbourhood, 42.3% of homes have label D or lower, so this is fairly typical for the area. You can expect moderate heating costs, but nothing extreme.
