About Watersleyerweg 21, Munstergeleen
The asking price of €489,000 is 21% above the neighbourhood average of €403,200. However, the floor area of 186 m² is 39% larger than the neighbourhood average of 134 m², so the price per square metre is roughly in line with the market. The median sold price in the area is €369,000, but that includes smaller homes.
The energy label is F, which is one of the least efficient ratings. This means the home is likely to have high heating costs, especially given its size and age (built in 1950). In the neighbourhood, 43.8% of homes have a label D or lower, so an F label is not uncommon for older properties.
The plot measures 465 m², which is generous for a detached house. The listing does not specify a garden, terrace, or other outdoor features, so you would need to view the property to see how the land is laid out.
Munstergeleen has a mix of households: about 30% are couples with children, 38% are couples without children, and 31% are singles. There are several primary schools within walking distance, and the area has a quiet, village feel. The nearest secondary school is 3.3 km away.
The nearest train station is 2.5 km from the house, which is about a five-minute drive or a 15-minute cycle. There are no bus connections specified in the listing.
An F label indicates poor energy efficiency, so you can expect higher gas and electricity bills compared to a more modern home. The exact costs depend on usage, but it is worth budgeting for significant heating expenses, especially in winter.
The average price per square metre in the neighbourhood is €2,959, while this home works out to about €2,629 per m² (based on 186 m²). That is slightly below the average, so the price is competitive for the size. However, the total price is above the median because of the larger floor area.
