About Spuiplein 5, Breskens
The asking price of €549,000 is above the median of €464,000 in Breskens, but the home is exceptional: 269 m² of living space is 115% larger than the neighbourhood average of 125 m². The price per square metre works out at about €2,041, which is well below the average of €4,549/m² in Breskens. So while the total price is high, you get a lot of space for your money.
The energy label is G, the lowest rating. This means the home is not energy-efficient and you can expect high heating costs. The house dates from 1928 and likely has poor insulation and single glazing. In the neighbourhood, 55.6% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for an older property.
