The asking price is 97% above the neighbourhood average of €557,500, and it is the most expensive of the four homes currently for sale in Montfoort. However, this home is also much larger than average: 252 m² versus 126 m². The price per square metre works out at roughly €4,365, which is slightly below the neighbourhood average of €4,803. So while the total price is high, the square-metre price is actually in line with the market.
