About Karel Doormanstraat 3, Spijkenisse
The asking price of €500,000 is above the neighbourhood average of €470,625 and the median of €447,000. However, the plot of 827 m² is exceptionally large for a detached house in Kern, where only 16% of homes are single-family. The price per m² of living space (€3,356) is in line with the neighbourhood average of €3,341, so the premium reflects the land rather than the house itself.
Energy label G is the lowest rating, indicating poor insulation and high energy consumption. In the neighbourhood, 75% of homes have labels A or better, so this house will likely have much higher heating bills. The 1923 construction year and lack of modern insulation mean you should expect significant costs to improve efficiency, though no specific amounts are available.
The plot of 827 m² is very generous for a detached house in Kern. The neighbourhood has a high address density (2,962 per km²), so most homes have smaller plots. The average floor area for sold homes is 143 m², but the plot size is not typically published. This large garden is a standout feature.
