About van der Palmstraat 49, Gouda
The asking price of €550,000 is in line with the market for a detached home of this size and age in Gouda. The 114 m² floor area and 132 m² plot are typical for a pre-war detached house in this part of town. Without comparable sales data for the immediate neighbourhood, it's hard to say if it's a bargain, but it's not overpriced compared to similar listings.
The home has energy label D. That means it's not the most efficient, but it's not the worst either. You can expect moderate heating costs, especially for a detached house from 1936. It's worth noting that many homes of this era have been upgraded over time, so the actual performance may vary.
Gouda railway station is 2.1 km from the home, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short bike ride. From there, you can catch trains to Utrecht, Rotterdam, and The Hague. The station is well connected, but you'll need a bike or bus to get there comfortably.

The closest supermarket is Lidl at 690 m, just around the corner. Albert Heijn is about 1.1 km away, a ten-minute walk. There's also a Coop and a SPAR within 1.5 km. For daily groceries, you're well covered without needing a car.
