About Dorpsstraat 38, Waalre

The floor area of 73 m² is smaller than the neighbourhood average of 124 m², which partly explains the lower price. Overall, the rent is on the low side compared with other listings.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is B, which is an official registration from EP-Online. A B label indicates a reasonably efficient home, so you can expect moderate energy costs. The label does not say anything about the condition of the building itself, only its energy performance. It is a good sign for keeping monthly bills manageable.
