About Stouweweg 3-002, Ommen
The asking price of €295,000 is below the neighbourhood average of €337,500 and the median of €337,500. However, the home is smaller than average (49 m² vs 72 m²), so the price per m² is about €6,020, which is higher than the neighbourhood average of €5,060. The large plot of 1169 m² adds value, but the energy label E means higher running costs. Overall, the price seems in line with the market given the size and plot.
