About Lyts Blijema 12, Grou
The asking price is €485,000, which is about 25% above the average asking price in Grou (€386,629). However, this home is larger than average (155 m² vs 126 m²) and sits on a generous plot. The price per m² is about €3,129, while the neighbourhood average is €3,682 per m², so on a per-square-metre basis it's actually below average.
The home has energy label C. That means it has reasonable insulation and energy efficiency, but not top-tier. In the neighbourhood, 36.7% of homes have label C, and 33.3% have a lower label (D or worse). So this home is about average for the area in terms of energy performance.
The nearest train station is 1.3 km away, which is about a 15-minute walk or a short cycle ride. That makes it feasible for commuting without a car.
