About Zwedenburg 188, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €260,000 is 21% below the average asking price in Burgen en Horsten, which is €327,528. Given the 84 m² floor area, that works out at about €3,095 per m², while the neighbourhood average per m² is €3,897. So it's priced keenly compared to other homes currently on the market in the area.
Energy label G is the lowest rating, so the apartment is not energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating and electricity bills compared to a home with a better label. The exact costs depend on usage and energy prices, but it's something to budget for.
The nearest supermarket is Hoogvliet, just 181 metres away, so on your doorstep. PLUS is 326 metres away and Albert Heijn is 358 metres, both a five-minute walk. That gives you several options for daily groceries.
The nearest primary school is Basisschool Essesteijn, about 1.1 km away, a ten-minute walk. For secondary education, Veurs Voorburg is 1.5 km away. There are several other schools within a couple of kilometres, so plenty of choice.
The train station is 1.5 km from the apartment, which is about a 15-minute walk or a short cycle. That makes commuting by train quite feasible.
The CBS data records 360 total crimes in the neighbourhood, but without a per-capita breakdown it's hard to compare.
At 84 m² with one floor, it could work for a small family, but the neighbourhood has many single-person households and the apartment itself doesn't specify the number of bedrooms. The energy label G might also mean higher costs. It's best to view the layout to see if it fits your needs.
