About Bankastraat 31, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €419,500 is 51% below the neighbourhood average of €862,555, but the home is also much smaller than average (46 m² vs 142 m²). Given the compact size and the need for renovation, the price is in line with what you'd expect for a small terraced house in this desirable area.
The home has energy label B, which is good for a house built in 1874. It means the property is reasonably efficient, but you can expect moderate energy costs. In the neighbourhood, about 45% of homes have label A or better, so this is above average for the area.
The Archipelbuurt has a mix of residents, with about 12% of households having children. It's a safe, community-oriented area where people look out for each other. There are several primary and secondary schools within walking distance, and parks are a short walk away.
The neighbourhood is well connected by bus and tram, and the train station is 2.3 km away. Residents describe it as easily accessible by public transport, bike, and car. The city centre is a short bike ride away.
The house was built in 1874, so it has character but may require some updating. The energy label B suggests recent improvements, but you should budget for maintenance typical of a period property. The exact condition is not detailed in the listing.
The plot is 61 m², which includes the house footprint. There is no separate garden mentioned in the listing, so outdoor space is likely limited to a small courtyard or none at all.
The average price per m² in the neighbourhood is €6,460, while this home works out at about €9,120 per m² due to its small size. However, the total price is well below the median of €795,750, making it one of the most affordable options in the Archipelbuurt.
