Frequently asked questions
About Drijfriemstraat 3B, 'S-Gravenhage
Is €275,000 a fair price for this apartment?
The asking price of €275,000 is below the neighbourhood average of €290,397 and the median of €279,999. Given the 86 m² floor area, that works out to about €3,198 per m², which is lower than the neighbourhood average of €3,998 per m². So it's priced keenly for the area.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is F, which is one of the lower ratings. That means the home is not very energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with a better label. In the neighbourhood, 50% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for a pre-war building.
