About Dorpstraat 51, Buchten
The asking price of €465,000 is above the neighbourhood median of €349,500 and also above the average sold price of €397,786. However, the home is 45% larger than the typical home in Buchten (269 m² vs 185 m²), so the price per m² is about €1,729, which is below the neighbourhood average of €2,257 per m². Whether it's fair depends on how much you value the extra space and the character of a 1930s home.
