About Hoofdstraat 23, Grou
The asking price is 29% below the neighbourhood average of €386,629, but the apartment is also 41% smaller than the average home in Grou (74 m² vs 126 m²). Given the small size and poor energy label G, the price is in line with what you'd expect for a pre-war apartment needing work.
The energy label is G, the lowest rating. This means the home has poor insulation and high heating costs. The neighbourhood has a mix of labels: 20% are A, 10% B, 36.7% C, and 33.3% D or lower. You should expect significant energy bills.
The train station is 1.3 km away, about a ten-minute walk. Grou is well connected for a village of its size.
