About Marijkestraat 28, Rijen
At €498,000, this is the cheapest of the three homes currently for sale in Centrumgebied Oost Rijen. The average asking price in the neighbourhood is €579,333, and the median is €595,000, so this home is priced below the local norm. However, its floor area of 112 m² is 44% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 201 m², and the energy label D is less efficient than most homes on the market here. The large plot of 650 m² is a notable plus.
Energy label D means the home is moderately efficient. In a neighbourhood where 60% of homes have label A, this one will likely have higher heating and electricity bills. You can expect to spend more on energy compared to a more modern, better-insulated home. The exact costs depend on usage and energy prices, but label D is a step below the current standard.
