About de Jongstraat 14, Doetinchem
The asking price of €389,000 is slightly above the average sale price in the neighbourhood (€329,453) and above the median asking price (€299,000). However, this home has a larger plot (425 m²) than many in the area, and similar semi-detached houses in Doetinchem often command a premium. Given the current market, where homes sell in about 21 days on average, the price seems realistic but not a bargain.
The home has energy label C, which is average for a house built in 1964. It means the property is reasonably well-insulated but not as efficient as modern homes. You can expect moderate energy costs, but improvements like better insulation or solar panels could lower them further. In the neighbourhood, about 33% of homes have label C, and 50% have a lower rating.
Homes in Schrijvers en dichtersbuurt sell relatively quickly, with an average time on the market of 21 days for sold properties. This suggests a active market where well-priced homes don't linger. The current supply is limited, with only six homes for sale, which may add to the competition.
