About Nieuwe Koekoekstraat 87A, Utrecht

An A+++ label is the highest possible rating, meaning the home is extremely energy-efficient. You can expect very low heating and electricity costs compared to older homes. The apartment was built in 1904 but has been upgraded to modern standards, so you benefit from good insulation and efficient systems without the draughts typical of pre-war buildings.
