About Torenstraat 83, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price is 30% below the average asking price in Kortenbos (€500,148) and also below the median of €425,000. However, the apartment is smaller than average (68 m² vs 108 m²) and has an energy label E, which may explain the lower price. Given the central location and the fact that similar apartments in the area sell for around €497,000 on average, this price seems competitive.
The energy label is E, which means the home is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with a better label. In Kortenbos, most homes for sale have a better energy label: 38.5% have label A, 11.5% label B, and 25.6% label C. Only 21.8% have label D or lower, so this apartment falls into the less efficient category.
