About Schimmelweg 62, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €285,000 is below the neighbourhood average of €310,628 and the median of €295,000. Given that the floor area (56 m²) is smaller than the neighbourhood average of 80 m², the price per square metre works out to about €5,089, which is higher than the neighbourhood average of €4,001 per m². So while the total price is lower, you are paying a premium per square metre.
The energy label is C, which is average for a home of this age. It means the home is reasonably efficient but not top-tier. You can expect moderate energy costs, though exact bills depend on usage.
