About Hugo de Grootstraat 19, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price is 51% below the neighbourhood average of €657,936, which makes it one of the cheapest options in the Zeeheldenkwartier. However, the flat is smaller (53 m² vs 104 m² average) and has an energy label G, so the lower price reflects the need for renovation. Compared to the average price per m² of €6,494, this flat comes in at about €6,132 per m², slightly below the norm.
Energy label G is the lowest rating, meaning the home is not energy-efficient. You can expect high heating costs and likely poor insulation, single glazing, and an old heating system. In the Zeeheldenkwartier, 25.8% of homes have label D or lower, so this is not uncommon for a 1880s building. Renovations like double glazing, insulation, and a new boiler could improve the label significantly.
At 53 m², this flat is 49% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 104 m². It's a compact one-bedroom or studio-sized apartment, typical for a 19th-century building. The average sold home in the area is 104 m², so this is on the small side. If you need more space, you might look at larger apartments, but they come at a higher price.
