About Dorpsweg 117, Twisk
The asking price of €450,000 is 41% below the average asking price in Twisk Centrum (€765,000) and is the lowest of the six homes currently for sale in the neighbourhood. However, the house is smaller than average (119 m² vs 332 m²) and has an energy label G, which means higher running costs. Compared to recent sales in the area (average €678,838), the price is on the low side, reflecting the smaller size and poor energy performance.
Energy label G is the lowest rating, indicating poor insulation and high energy consumption. You can expect significant heating costs, especially in a detached house built in 1930. In the neighbourhood, about 29% of homes have label D or lower, so this house is among the least efficient. It would be wise to budget for energy bills and consider improvements, though the exact costs depend on usage and future upgrades.
