About Prinses Margrietlaan 33, Valkenburg (Li)
The asking price is 95% above the neighbourhood average of €470,802 and is the highest of the 68 homes currently for sale in Valkenburg. However, this home is also 66% larger than the average (252 m² vs 152 m²) and has an A+ energy label, which only 10% of the local stock has. So the price reflects its exceptional size and quality, but it is definitely at the top end of the market.
An A+ label means the home is very energy-efficient, so you can expect low heating and electricity bills compared to older homes. In Valkenburg, only about 10% of homes for sale have A+ labels, so this is a strong point. The exact savings depend on usage, but the label indicates excellent insulation and efficient installations.
