The home itself
The listing does not provide details on the layout, such as the number of rooms, bedrooms, or bathrooms, nor does it mention any garden, garage, or insulation. The energy label is E, which means the home is not among the most efficient, so expect higher energy costs. The year of construction, 1914, is a fact of the building's history, but the listing gives no information about the condition of the structure or installations. What is clear is the generous floor area, which offers plenty of space across the home.
