About Oudegracht 50E, Utrecht
The rent of €1,422 is 20% below the neighbourhood average of €1,779, so it's on the lower side for the area. However, the apartment is also smaller than average (48 m² vs 122 m²), so the price per m² is actually €29.63, which is above the neighbourhood average of €24.59 per m². It's a competitive market: homes here rent out in an average of 18 days.
The energy label is E. This means the home is not very energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with a better label. The exact costs depend on usage, but label E typically indicates an older building with less insulation.
The nearest train station is 2.0 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short bus ride.
