About Rijksweg 80, Limmen
The asking price of €850,000 is above the average sale price of €665,000 for homes sold recently in Limmen Centrum. However, this is a detached house from 1910 with 152 m² of floor space and a 390 m² plot, which is larger and more distinctive than the typical home in the area. The neighbourhood saw 9 sales with an average time on market of just 8 days, indicating strong demand. Whether the price is fair depends on how much you value the character and space.
The home has an energy label B, which is quite efficient for a house built in 1910. This means you can expect relatively low heating costs compared to older, uninsulated homes. All homes sold recently in the neighbourhood had label B, so it's consistent with the local stock. No further details on insulation or heating system are provided in the listing.
