Bergen-Centrum, Bergen (Noord-Holland)
NeighbourhoodThis detached house on Karel de Grotelaan sits in the heart of Bergen, a village known for its artists and leafy lanes. With 76 m² of living space on a 305 m² plot, it's compact but has plenty of outdoor potential. The energy label G means heating costs will be significant, something to factor in. Priced at €785,000, that works out at over €10,000 per m², well above the average for detached houses in Bergen (Noord-Holland), so the price is on the high side.

About Karel de Grotelaan 28, Bergen (Nh)
At €785,000 for 76 m², the price per square metre is around €10,300. That's significantly higher than the average for detached homes in Bergen, so it's on the high side. The large plot of 305 m² and the central location in Bergen-Centrum partly justify the premium, but the poor energy label G means you'll have extra costs to consider.
Energy label G is the lowest rating, meaning the home is not energy-efficient. You can expect high heating and electricity bills. The house was built in 1920, so it likely has poor insulation and old windows. Renovations like double glazing, roof insulation, or a new heating system could improve the label and reduce costs, but that requires investment.
The plot is 305 m², which is generous for a detached house in this area. The garden is not described in the listing, but the size suggests there is outdoor space. You could potentially extend the house, subject to planning permission, or create a garden. The exact layout and possibilities are not stated.
