The asking price of €1,950,000 is 297% above the average asking price in Binnenstad-Noord (€490,923) and is the highest of the 13 homes currently for sale in the neighbourhood. The home is also much larger than average (672 m² vs 172 m²). Whether it is fair depends on how you value the size, location and character of this early 20th-century house.

The energy label is G, the lowest rating. This means the home is not energy-efficient and heating costs are likely to be high. The home was built in 1906, so it may have single glazing and poor insulation. In the neighbourhood, 54.5% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for the area, but it is something to budget for.

The plot measures 2,605 m², which is generous for a detached house in the city centre. The floor area is 672 m² spread over several floors. The listing does not specify how many rooms or bathrooms there are, so you would need to check the floor plan with the agent.
