About Generaal S.H. Spoorstraat 289, Dordrecht
Yes, it's priced keenly. The asking price is about 20% below the neighbourhood average of €281,556, though the apartment is also smaller than average (58 m² vs 81 m²). Given the energy label F, which means higher heating costs, the price still looks competitive compared to other listings in Merwedepolder-West.
The energy label is F, which is poor. You can expect higher energy bills compared to a more efficient home. In the neighbourhood, 62.5% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for the area, but it's something to factor into your monthly costs.
The nearest train station is 4.3 km away, so you'd need a bike or car to get there. It's not within walking distance, but the area is well served by other transport links.
