van der Palmstraat 85

The asking price of €335,000 is slightly below the neighbourhood median of €360,000 and well under the average of €381,150. However, given the energy label G and the age of the building, the price is on the high side when compared to the average price per m² of €4,502. Similar apartments in Bovenveen midden have sold for an average of €389,569, so it's not out of line, but you'll want to factor in potential renovation costs.

Energy label G is the lowest rating, meaning the home is not energy-efficient. You can expect high heating and electricity bills compared to a modern home. The neighbourhood has no A or A+ labels, and 60% of homes are rated D or lower, so this is common for the area. Improvements like insulation or double glazing could significantly reduce costs, but the listing does not state any recent upgrades.

The nearest train station is a ten-minute walk away, which is convenient for commuting to The Hague or Leiden. The station distance of 1.0 km makes it a comfortable walk.

Bovenveen midden has a mix of households: about 585 with children and 485 without, but the majority are single-person households (1,360). The area is young, with many residents aged 25-45. Schools are within walking distance, and there are parks nearby. However, the high proportion of flats and the urban density may not suit everyone.

There are 10 apartments for sale in Bovenveen midden, with prices ranging from €299,500 to €525,000. The average time on market for sold homes is 44 days, which suggests a fairly active market. This listing is priced competitively within that range.

The apartment was built in 1948, so it has the typical characteristics of post-war construction. The energy label G indicates that insulation and heating systems are outdated. The listing does not mention any recent renovations, so you should expect some maintenance work. The neighbourhood has 75% of homes built between 1945 and 1970, so this is a common age.
