Oude Velperweg 4

The asking price of €485,000 is above the neighbourhood average of €473,188 and well above the median of €347,500. However, this apartment is larger (130 m²) than the average (123 m²) and is a pre-war property with character. The price per m² works out to about €3,731, which is below the neighbourhood average of €3,983 per m². So while the total price is high, the per-square-metre cost is actually in line with the market.

The energy label is E, which is below average for the neighbourhood. In Plattenburg, 20% of homes have label A and 13.3% have label B, while 33.3% have label C and another 33.3% have D or lower. An E label means higher energy costs, so you should expect significant heating bills, especially in winter. The home was built in 1931, so insulation may be limited.

For secondary education, VMBO 't Venster is 805 m and Thomas a Kempis College is 837 m. So children can walk or cycle to school easily.
