About Rijksweg 132B, Limmen
The asking price of €475,000 is below the average sale price in Limmen Centrum, which was €665,000 for the nine homes sold recently. That's a difference of about 29%, so the price is on the low side for the neighbourhood. However, the house has an energy label E and dates from 1900, which may explain the lower price compared to newer or more efficient homes.
Energy label E indicates a home that is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating and electricity costs compared to a home with a better label. The neighbourhood data shows that all recently sold homes in Limmen Centrum had label B, so this house is less efficient than the local average. It's worth factoring in potential upgrades to improve efficiency.
The nearest train station is 4.1 km away. That's about a ten-minute drive or a 15-minute bike ride. The station is not named in the listing, but the distance means you'll likely need a car or bike for train travel.
