About Tesselschadestraat 15C, Amsterdam
The asking price is 37% above the neighbourhood average of €1,603,333, but the apartment is also 34% larger than the average home in the area (162 m² versus 121 m²).

An A label means the home is very energy-efficient, so heating and electricity bills are likely to be lower than in older, uninsulated properties. In the neighbourhood, only 23.5% of homes have an A label, so this is a significant advantage for a 1879 building.
