The average sold price in the area is €317,566, so this is well below that too. Given its 96 m² floor area and 130 m² plot, the price per m² is about €2,135, compared to the neighbourhood average of €4,578. It's a keen price, reflecting the older energy label and the fact that most homes in the area are more expensive.
The home has energy label D. In the neighbourhood, 85.2% of homes for sale have label A or better, so this one is less efficient. Label D means you can expect higher heating costs compared to a modern home, but it's not the worst, older homes in the area often have lower labels.
