For context, the average asking price per square metre in the area is €6,527, while this home comes in at €6,010 per square metre.

A fifth-floor home with a parking spot
This is a four-room upper apartment on a single floor, with a living area of 99 square metres according to the agent, while the BAG registration lists 98 square metres. The home comes with a private parking space, which is a practical bonus in this part of the city. It is a new-build, so you are buying into a fresh construction with an A++ energy label, one of the most efficient ratings available. The agent does not state the year of construction in the listing, so that detail is missing from the public record.
