About Stalpertstraat 135, 'S-Gravenhage

So per square metre you're paying about €30, which is above the neighbourhood average of €24.68. It's a fair price for the location and the size, but not a bargain.
The energy label is C. That means the home has reasonable insulation and heating efficiency, but it's not top-tier. You can expect moderate energy bills, not as low as an A-label, but not sky-high either. The exact costs depend on your usage, but label C is a solid middle ground.
The nearest train station is 3.5 km away. That's about a 10-minute bike ride or a 15-minute bus journey. It's not within walking distance, so you'll need a bike or car for public transport connections.
