About Burgstraat 25, Gorinchem
The asking price of €375,000 is 27% below the average asking price in Bovenstad (€516,667) and matches the median price exactly. Given the 91 m² floor area, that works out to about €4,120 per m², which is below the neighbourhood average of €5,084 per m². So it's priced keenly for the area.
Energy label E means the home is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with a better label. In Bovenstad, all other available homes have label A or better, so this one stands out as less efficient. It's worth factoring in potential improvements.
The nearest train station is 1.4 km away, which is about a 15-minute walk or a short cycle ride. That makes it feasible for commuting, though not right on your doorstep.
