Frequently asked questions
About Blauwedijk 21, Middelburg
Is €789,000 a fair price for this house?
The asking price is 60% above the average asking price in the Markt neighbourhood (€493,923). However, this home is also 32% larger than the neighbourhood average (184 m² vs 139 m²). The price per square metre works out at about €4,289, which is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €4,113 per m². So it's on the high side, but the size and central location justify a premium.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is D. This is an official registration (EP-Online) and indicates moderate energy efficiency. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with label A or B, but the label alone doesn't tell you exactly what needs improvement, it could be the heating system, glazing or insulation. In the neighbourhood, 60% of homes have label D or lower, so it's not unusual for the area.
