According to the agent, the house has 5 rooms, including 4 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, spread over 3 floors. The living area is 96 m², and the plot is 341 m². There is a garden on three sides, facing south, and a detached brick garage. The property is freehold and has mostly double glazing and a central heating boiler.

The energy label is D. This is not the most efficient label, so you can expect moderate energy costs. The agent notes that the home has mostly double glazing, which can help with insulation. However, the label itself does not tell you about the condition of the construction.

According to public data, the road traffic noise level is 62 dB Lden, which is above the Dutch noise norm. Aircraft noise is 38 dB Lden, which is below the norm. These are area-level indications based on 2022 data, not measurements at the property itself.

The foundation risk indication is medium, according to area-level data. The home was built in 1966 on clay soil, which may mean wooden piles or a shallow foundation. In this postcode area, 56% of buildings were constructed before 1970. This is an indication, not an inspection of this specific property.

The pluvial flooding risk is elevated, meaning there is a higher chance of flooding from heavy rain. The current flood risk is medium, and the risk for 2050 is also medium. These are area-level indications from the Klimaateffectatlas, not a guarantee for this specific home.
