About Kerkstraat 11, Born
The asking price is €235,000, which is 41% below the average asking price in Born (€396,438) and also below the median of €290,000. Given the 144 m² floor area, that works out to about €1,632 per m², while the neighbourhood average is €2,524 per m². So it's priced keenly, though the F energy label means higher running costs.
The energy label is F, which is poor. In Born, 47% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is on the less efficient end. You can expect higher heating and electricity bills compared to a more modern home. It's worth factoring that into your budget.

There are two primary schools within a five-minute walk: Basisschool Swentibold (259 m) and Openbare Basisschool de Wissel (501 m). For secondary education, the nearest school is 4.5 km away, so older children would need to travel.
