About Swalmerstraat 18, Roermond
The asking price of €375,000 is above the neighbourhood median of €325,000 and the average of €365,967. However, this is an end-of-terrace house with 126 m², while the average home in Binnenstad is 109 m². The price per m² (€2,976) is below the neighbourhood average of €3,804, so it's not overpriced for its size, but it's on the high side compared to typical homes in the area.
The energy label is F, which is poor. Most homes for sale in Binnenstad have better labels, 42% are A++ and only 18.6% are D or lower. An F label means heating costs will be significant, and the home likely needs insulation upgrades. This is reflected in the price, which is lower per m² than the neighbourhood average.
Binnenstad is very central, with supermarkets, restaurants, and a train station all within a ten-minute walk. The area is densely built and lively, with many singles and young adults. There are fewer families, but several primary schools are nearby. The high crime figure (932 total) is typical for a city centre and includes petty crime.
The train station is 1.0 km away, about a ten-minute walk. This makes it convenient for commuting, though the exact destinations are not listed.
The house was built in 1905, so it's over a century old. The energy label F suggests it hasn't been modernised extensively. The listing does not mention any renovations, so you should expect original features but also potential maintenance needs.
The plot is 70 m², which typically includes a small garden or courtyard, but the listing does not explicitly mention a garden. The plot size is small, so outdoor space is likely limited.
The listing does not state the number of rooms or bedrooms. With 126 m², it could have three or four rooms, but this is not confirmed.
