About Herenstraat 69, Bussum
The asking price is 24% above the average asking price in Spiegelzicht (€688,000). However, this home is 61% larger than the neighbourhood average (208 m² vs 129 m²), so the price per m² is roughly in line with the market. The corner-house layout and period features add value, but the energy label F means higher running costs.
The energy label is F, which is poor. This means the home is not well insulated and heating costs will be high. In Spiegelzicht, 40% of homes have a label D or lower, so it is not unusual for a pre-war house. You should budget for significant energy bills and consider improvements.
