The home has energy label C. That is a decent score for a house built in 1905. In the neighbourhood, 50% of homes have label C, and 30% have label A. Label C means reasonable insulation and moderate energy costs, but not as efficient as a modern home.
The train station is 1.2 km away, which is about a 15-minute walk. One resident mentions the station is 'at most 15 minutes away', so that matches.
