About Libellenstraat 16A01, Rotterdam
The asking price of €375,000 is 16% below the average asking price in Kralingen West (€447,367) and also below the median of €395,000. Given the 87 m² floor area and energy label D, the price per m² works out to about €4,310, which is lower than the neighbourhood average of €5,443 per m². So it appears keenly priced compared to other homes currently on the market.
The energy label is D. In Kralingen West, about 29.6% of homes have a label D or lower, while 23.9% have label A. A D label means the home is moderately efficient; heating costs will be higher than in a better-insulated home, but it's not the worst. You can expect reasonable energy bills, though improvements like double glazing or better insulation could bring the label up.
The nearest train station is 1.7 km away, which is about a 20-minute walk or a short cycle ride. This makes it feasible for commuting, though you'd likely use a bike or bus for the last leg.
