About Naarderstraat 88A, Hilversum
The asking price of €195,000 is 61% below the neighbourhood average of €499,231, but the apartment is also 46% smaller than the average (52 m² vs 96 m²). The price per m² works out to about €3,750, which is below the neighbourhood average of €5,270 per m². Given the small size and poor energy label, the price is in line with what you'd expect for a compact, older home.
The energy label is G, the lowest rating. This means the home is not energy-efficient and will have high heating costs. In the neighbourhood, 50% of homes have label A, so this apartment is at the other end of the spectrum. You should expect significant energy bills, especially in winter.
The building was constructed in 1899, making it over 120 years old. The listing does not mention any renovations, so the condition is unknown. In the neighbourhood, 33.3% of homes were built before 1945, so this is not unusual for the area, but an older home may require more maintenance.
