About Orthenstraat 12C, 'S-Hertogenbosch
The asking price of €315,000 is 56% below the average asking price in Binnenstad centrum (€718,369). However, this apartment is also 53% smaller than the neighbourhood average (56 m² vs 119 m²) and has an energy label G, which means higher energy costs. Given the compact size and poor energy performance, the price is in line with what you would expect for a starter home in the city centre.
Energy label G is the lowest rating, indicating poor insulation and high energy consumption. You can expect significant heating and electricity bills. In the neighbourhood, only 20.8% of homes have a label D or lower, so this apartment is among the least efficient. It is worth budgeting for energy upgrades if you plan to live here long-term.
Binnenstad centrum is very urban with a high density of shops and services. A Jumbo supermarket is 132 m away and an Albert Heijn is 205 m, so groceries are on your doorstep. There are many restaurants (0.2 km) and a park (0.8 km). The area is popular with young professionals and students, given the many single-person households.
The nearest train station is 1.2 km away, about a ten-minute walk. The city centre is very walkable, so you may not need a car for daily errands.
At 56 m², this apartment is 53% smaller than the average home for sale in Binnenstad centrum (119 m²). It is a compact living space, typical for a historic city centre where many apartments are smaller. The average price per m² in the neighbourhood is €6,234, so this home's price per m² works out to about €5,625, slightly below average.
There are several primary schools within a few kilometres, such as KC Het IJzeren Kind (2.9 km) and OBS De Koningslinde (3.1 km). Secondary schools are a bit further at 1.7 km on average. The neighbourhood has relatively few children (only 315 aged 0-15), so it is not a typical family area.
