About Burgstraat 20, Gorinchem
The asking price of €300,000 is 42% below the neighbourhood average of €516,667. However, the house is also smaller than average (50 m² vs 97 m²). The price per square metre works out at €6,000, which is above the neighbourhood average of €5,084 per m². So while the total price is low, you're paying a premium for the compact size.
Energy label D means the home is moderately efficient. You can expect higher energy bills compared to a modern home with label A or B. In this neighbourhood, all other available homes have label A, so this one stands out as less efficient. It's worth factoring in potential heating costs.
The nearest train station is 1.4 km away, which is about a ten-minute walk. That's convenient for commuting to nearby cities. The station is not named in the listing, but the distance is given.
There are several primary schools within walking distance: obs De Tweemaster (440 m), CBS De Tamboerijn (527 m), and Jenaplanschool Gorkum (539 m). For secondary education, Fortes Lyceum is 618 m away. All are within a five to ten-minute walk.
The CBS data records 66 total crimes in the neighbourhood, but without context it's hard to judge. The area is a historic city centre, which can be lively. You may want to check local crime maps for more detail.
The plot is 25 m², which is small. It likely includes the footprint of the house and possibly a tiny courtyard or passage. There is no garden mentioned in the listing, so outdoor space is minimal.
