The asking price of €420,000 is in line with the market, compared with the neighbourhood average asking price of €409,333.

The agent describes this as a single-family, detached house with six rooms, three bedrooms and one bathroom spread over two floors. The total volume is 564 cubic metres. Outside, there is a garden around the house and a detached brick garage. The property is freehold, so you own both the house and the land.
