The asking price of €785,000 is on the high side compared to other semi-detached houses in De Bilt. The home has a large plot of 360 m² and 148 m² of floor area, but the energy label G means you will face high energy costs. Whether it is fair depends on how much you value the character and space versus the running costs.

Energy label G is the least efficient rating. The home was built in 1927 and likely has poor insulation and an old heating system. You can expect high gas and electricity bills, especially in winter. Improvements like cavity wall insulation, double glazing and a new boiler could significantly reduce costs, but require investment.

De Bilt West has a mix of households: about 30% are families with children, 25% are couples without children, and 40% are single-person households. There are several primary schools within walking distance, and the area is quiet and green. The train station is 3.7 km away, so a car or bike is handy for commuting.

For daily groceries, Ekoplaza is 444 m away, Albert Heijn 538 m, and Dirk 551 m. A GP is 1 km away, and a restaurant is 0.5 km. The nearest park is 0.5 km. Secondary schools are further away at 3.5 km, so children may need to travel for secondary education.

The nearest train station is 3.7 km from the home. That is about a 10-minute bike ride or a short drive. From there, you can reach Utrecht and other cities.

The plot measures 360 m², which is generous for a semi-detached house. The listing does not specify whether there is a garden, terrace or other outdoor features, so you would need to view the property to see how the space is laid out.

The listing does not provide details on the condition of the home. The year of construction is 1927, and the energy label G suggests that modernisation may be needed. A structural survey is recommended to assess the state of the roof, foundations and installations.
