Energy label G is the lowest rating, indicating poor insulation and high energy costs. The home was built in 1960 and likely has single glazing and an old heating system. You can expect significant heating bills, and improvements would be needed to bring the label up.
The listing does not state the condition, but the energy label G and the 1960 build suggest modernisation is needed. The home is sold as-is, so you should budget for updates to the heating, insulation and possibly the kitchen and bathroom.
The median asking price in Berg is €415,000, and the average is €572,625. At €335,000, this home is below both, but it's also smaller (99 m² vs. 177 m² average) and has a poor energy label. So the price reflects the home's specific characteristics.
