Tolberterstraat 1II

The asking price of €269,000 is well below the neighbourhood median of €350,000 and the average price per m² of €2,842. However, the floor area is 40% smaller than the local average, and the energy label D is less efficient than most homes currently for sale in the area. So the price reflects the size and energy performance.

The home has energy label D. That means it is reasonably efficient but not modern, you can expect higher heating costs than a home with label A or B. In the neighbourhood, most of the current sales listings have a better energy label, so this is something to factor into your budget.

The nearest train station is 12.7 km away, so this is not a location for daily commuting by rail. You would rely on a car or bus for longer journeys.
