About Veenbesstraat 330, Soest
The asking price of €400,000 is below the neighbourhood average of €466,125 and the median of €467,000. However, the average price per m² in Smitsveen is €3,774, and this apartment has 100 m², which would give an average value of around €377,400. So at €4,000 per m², it's slightly above the average per m², but still within a reasonable range given the size and energy label C.
The energy label is C, which is average for a home of this age. In Smitsveen, about 36.8% of homes have label C, and 26.3% have label B. Label C means the home is reasonably efficient, but you can expect moderate energy costs. It's not as efficient as label A or B, but better than labels D to G.
The nearest train station is 1.4 km away, which is about a 17-minute walk or a 5-minute cycle. That makes it convenient for commuting without being right on top of the tracks.
