Inside the home
The agent listed the living area at 90 m², while the BAG registration records 84 m². The apartment has four rooms, including three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The home was built in 1902, a fact that speaks to its age but says nothing about its condition. The listing did not mention any garden, balcony, or garage, so outdoor space was not part of the offering.
