Frequently asked questions
About Utrechtsestraatweg 31A, Woerden
Is €1,500,000 a fair price for this house?
The asking price of €1,500,000 is about double the neighbourhood average of €751,167. However, this home is much larger than typical properties in Staatsliedenkwartier: 381 m² versus an average of 146 m². The price per m² works out to roughly €3,937, which is below the neighbourhood average of €5,049 per m². So while the total price is high, you are getting significantly more space.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The home has energy label C. This is a reasonable rating for a house built in 1870. In the neighbourhood, about 52.9% of homes have label A and 29.4% have label A+, so this home is less efficient than many newer properties. You can expect moderate energy costs, but improvements like insulation or double glazing could help.
How is the neighbourhood for families?

How old is the house and what condition is it in?
The house was built in 1870, making it one of the older properties in the neighbourhood (only 7.7% of homes date from before 1945). With label C and a large floor area, it likely has original features but may need some modernisation. The listing does not mention any recent renovations, so a viewing is recommended to assess the condition.
