About Korte Houtstraat 11F, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €350,000 is 39% below the neighbourhood average of €571,119, which makes it look very competitive. However, the energy label E is poor, most homes for sale in Uilebomen have a better label (over 90% are A or A+). That could mean higher energy bills, so factor that in. The price per m² works out at about €3,933, well under the neighbourhood average of €5,932.
The energy label is E, which is on the low end. In Uilebomen, only about 1.7% of homes for sale have a label D or lower, so this apartment is an exception. An E label typically means higher heating costs and less efficient insulation. You'll want to budget for energy bills accordingly.
The nearest train station is 0.9 km away, which is about a ten-minute walk. That's handy for commuting or day trips.
There's a SPAR just 80 metres away, perfect for quick shops. Ekoplaza is 233 metres away for organic groceries, and an Albert Heijn is 261 metres away. So you've got several options within a few minutes' walk.
Uilebomen is a very urban, dense area with a young population, most residents are between 25 and 45. It's a mix of singles and couples, with few children. The area has a high crime rate (1,064 total offences), which is something to be aware of. But it's central and lively, with plenty of restaurants and cafes nearby.
In Uilebomen, sold homes took an average of 66 days to sell. That's a bit over two months, which suggests a reasonably active market but not a frantic one.
