AreaA 1959 apartment in the heart of Dorp
This apartment on Oranjelaan 28 sits in Dorp, the oldest part of Zoetermeer, where the streets have a settled, lived-in feel.

With a living area of 55 m² according to the BAG registration, the asking price of €275,000 works out at €5,000 per m². That price is 37% below the neighbourhood average asking price of €438,938, which the data marks as keen.

What the listing tells us
This listing is sparse on detail. It does not state the number of rooms, bedrooms or bathrooms, nor any information about the garden, balcony, insulation or heating. As a result, the layout and condition of the interior remain unknown. What is clear is the year of construction, 1959, and the energy label G, which points to significant heating costs. The living area of 55 m² comes from the BAG registration, and that is the figure used for the price per m².
