At €263,000, this semi-detached house is the cheapest of the 22 homes currently for sale in Roombeek-Roomveldje. The neighbourhood average asking price is €496,705, so this home is 47% below that. However, it's also smaller than average (93 m² vs 132 m²) and has an energy label E, which means higher energy costs. Given these factors, the price is on the low side for the area.
