About Amersfoortsestraat 40, Barneveld
The asking price is significantly above the neighbourhood average of €507,636, but this is the largest and most expensive home currently for sale in Centrum Barneveld. With 210 m² of floor area and an 800 m² plot, it is much bigger than the typical home in the area (average 96 m²). The price reflects its size, age and central location. Whether it is fair depends on how you value a period property in a village centre.
The energy label is F, which is low on the scale. This means the home is not very energy-efficient, so heating costs are likely to be higher than in a modern home. The house dates from 1896, so it may have single glazing and limited insulation. You should expect to spend on energy bills, but the exact amount depends on usage and any improvements you make.
