About Irenestraat 19, Groningen
The asking price of €239,000 is in line with the market for a semi-detached house of this size in Hoogkerk-Zuid. The 136 m² floor area and 464 m² plot are generous, though the energy label F will mean higher utility costs. Compared to similar homes in the area, the price is reasonable.
The energy label is F, which is poor. This means the home is not well insulated and heating costs will be high. You should budget for significant energy bills and consider improvements like insulation or double glazing to reduce consumption.
The nearest train station is 5.1 km away, so it's not within walking distance. You would need a bike, car, or bus to reach it. The station provides connections to Groningen city centre and beyond.
