WOZ and address data
The WOZ value is not stated in the available data, so no comparison with the asking price can be made here.

The noise load from road traffic is 56 dB Lden, which is above the noise standard, while the noise from air traffic is 48 dB Lden, below the standard. The foundation risk indication is low, though the soil is clay, which is sensitive to settling. For climate risks, pluvial flooding at heavy rain is low, the current flood risk is medium, and by 2050 the flood risk remains medium. Heat stress is currently low but is expected to become medium by 2050.
