About Schanswijk 14, Elshout
The asking price of €590,000 is 40% below the average asking price in Elshout (€981,929) and also below the median of €685,000. Recently sold homes in the neighbourhood went for an average of €705,295, so this listing is priced on the low side. However, the home has an E energy label and dates from 1900, which may require some investment in upgrades.
The home has an energy label E, which is less efficient than modern standards. In the neighbourhood, 50% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for an older property. You can expect higher energy bills compared to a home with a better label, but the exact costs depend on usage and future improvements.
The nearest supermarket is Aldi, located 1.3 km from the home, which is about a ten-minute walk. Albert Heijn and Jumbo are also within 1.7 km, so daily shopping is easily done on foot or by bike.
