About Burgemeester Patijnlaan 404, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €419,000 is 51% below the average asking price in the Archipelbuurt (€862,555) and well below the median of €795,750. However, this apartment is 119 m², while the neighbourhood average for homes for sale is 142 m². Given the energy label D and the 1975 build year, the price is keen compared to other listings in the area.
The energy label is D. In the Archipelbuurt, about 22% of homes for sale have a label D or lower, while 33% have label A. A D label means the home is moderately efficient; heating costs will be higher than in a modern, well-insulated home, but it's not the worst rating.
