About Weerdsingel O.Z. 67B, Utrecht
The asking price of €299,000 is significantly below the neighbourhood average of €600,636, but the studio is also much smaller than average (32 m² vs 92 m²). The price per square metre works out at about €9,344, which is above the neighbourhood average of €6,872 per m². So while the total price is low, you're paying a premium for the compact size.
The home has energy label B, which is good for a 1920s building. It means the home is reasonably energy-efficient, with lower heating costs compared to older, uninsulated homes. In the neighbourhood, only about 17% of homes have label B or better, so this is a relatively efficient choice.
The nearest train station is 2 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short cycle ride. Utrecht's central station is well-connected, but the distance means you'll likely want a bike or bus for the commute.
