About Baron de Schencklaan 30, Swalmen
The asking price of €325,000 is 21% below the average asking price in the neighbourhood (€413,714) and also below the median of €380,000. However, the home is smaller than average (94 m² vs 144 m²). Given the lower floor area, the price per m² is roughly in line with the neighbourhood average of €2,982 per m², so it is priced competitively for its size.
The home has energy label C. This means it has reasonable insulation and energy efficiency, but not the highest standards. Heating costs will be moderate. In the neighbourhood, most homes have label A or better (60% label A, 6.7% label A+), so this home is slightly less efficient than average.
The Martin Giessen-Bosstraat neighbourhood is very family-friendly. Almost all homes are single-family houses, and a large share of households have children. There are several primary schools within walking distance, including Basisschool De Octopus just 150 metres away. The area is quiet and green, with a park nearby.
The nearest train station is 1.8 km away, about a 20-minute walk or a short cycle. From there you can reach Roermond and other cities.
The plot is 185 m², which includes the garden and driveway.
The home was built in 1983, so it is over 40 years old. With energy label C, it has likely been updated to some extent, but you may want to check the condition of the roof, windows, and heating system. The neighbourhood has a mix of homes from the 1970s to after 2010.
In the past period, 36 homes sold in the neighbourhood at an average price of €387,806 and an average time on market of 58 days. This home's asking price of €325,000 is below that average, which may indicate it is priced to sell quickly.
