About Bennekomstraat 68, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €265,000 is below the neighbourhood average of €287,100 and the median of €295,000. Given the 81 m² floor area, that works out to €3,272 per m², which is less than the neighbourhood average of €3,720 per m². However, the energy label G means higher running costs, so the lower price partly reflects that. Recently sold homes in the area went for an average of €312,825, so this one is priced to attract buyers who are willing to invest in upgrades.
Energy label G is the lowest rating, so you can expect high heating and electricity bills. The home was built in 1931 and likely has single glazing and poor insulation. In the neighbourhood, 58.3% of homes have label D or lower, so this is not unusual for the area. You would need to budget for significant energy costs until improvements are made.
With 81 m², it's slightly larger than the average sold home in the neighbourhood (78 m²). The price per m² is €3,272, below the neighbourhood average of €3,720. Only 10 homes are currently for sale in the area, so choice is limited. Recently, 40 homes sold in an average of 49 days, suggesting a steady market.
Oostbroek-Noord has 650 households with children, making up about 27% of all households. There are several primary schools within 5 km, though the closest is about 4.5 km away.

The nearest train station is 3.5 km away, so it's not within walking distance for a quick trip. You would likely cycle or take a bus to the station.
