About Boschdal 17, Herten
The asking price is 45% above the average asking price in Merum, which is €458,563. That's because this home is larger (162 m² vs 151 m² average) and much newer (built in 2017, while most homes in the neighbourhood date from 1990-2010 or earlier). The price per m² works out at about €4,105, which is higher than the neighbourhood average of €3,130 per m². So it's on the high side, but you're paying for a modern, energy-efficient home.

In Merum, 57% of homes have label A, so this home is in line with the best in the neighbourhood. The home was built in 2017, so it meets modern insulation and building standards.
The plot is 476 m², which includes the house and the garden. The home is a semi-detached house, so the garden is likely private and not overlooked.
