About Gilzerweg 1, Alphen
The asking price of €939,000 is 34% below the neighbourhood average of €1,415,500, so it is on the keen side. However, the home has an energy label G, which means higher energy costs, and it was built in 1955. The large plot of 3395 m² adds value. Compared to the median price of €1,545,000 in the area, this home is priced competitively.
The energy label is G, the lowest rating. This indicates poor insulation and high heating costs. In the neighbourhood, 60% of homes have label A, so this home is significantly less efficient. You should expect substantial energy bills and may want to consider improvements like insulation or a new heating system.
The plot measures 3395 m², which is very spacious. It offers plenty of room for a garden, outdoor activities, or even extensions (subject to planning permission).
