A pre-war apartment with character
This apartment on Geestbrugkade sits in Leeuwendaal, a neighbourhood in Rijswijk where the streets have a settled, lived-in feel. The building dates from 1909, so it carries the proportions and details of pre-war construction. With a price of €495,000, the asking price sits on the high side compared with other apartments in Rijswijk, especially given the energy label D and the fact that the home needs attention.
Inside the home
The agent describes this as a four-room apartment with two bedrooms, one bathroom and two floors, covering 134 m² according to the listing. The BAG registration records 112 m² of living space, so the two figures differ depending on the source. The home has double glazing (HR+ or HR++), and the volume is 485 m³. The energy label is D, which means heating costs will be noticeable but not extreme.
