About Westkade 41B, Hellevoetsluis
The asking price of €339,000 is 28% below the average asking price in De Vesting (€472,917). However, this apartment is also smaller than average: 79 m² versus 112 m². The price per square metre works out at about €4,291, which is slightly below the neighbourhood average of €4,726. So it is priced keenly for its size, but the lower floor area explains much of the difference.
The energy label is D. In De Vesting, most homes for sale have a better label (25% A+ and 75% A), so this apartment is less efficient than the local norm. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a modern home, but the exact amount depends on usage and the type of heating system.
The nearest train station is 30 km away, so this is not a location for daily commuting by rail. Most residents will rely on a car or bus for longer journeys.
