About Damplein 28, Middelburg
The asking price is 39% above the neighbourhood average of €466,868, which is a significant premium. However, this is a monumental townhouse from 1888 in the historic centre, and such properties often command higher prices. The average price per m² in the area is €4,589, so at €4,669 per m², it's slightly above that too. Whether it's fair depends on how much you value the historic character and central location.
The energy label is E, which is common for a house built in 1888. In the neighbourhood, 40% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is in line with the older housing stock. An E label means higher energy costs for heating and electricity compared to modern homes, so you should budget for that.
Damplein is very central, with a SPAR supermarket just 239 m away and several other supermarkets within a ten-minute walk. Primary and secondary schools are within walking distance, and the train station is 0.7 km away. The area is densely built-up but has a park 0.4 km away. It's a quiet neighbourhood with many older residents, so it's not a bustling family area.
The plot is 48 m², but the listing does not specify a garden. Given that it's a townhouse in the historic centre, outdoor space is likely limited to a small courtyard or no garden at all. You would need to check the exact layout with the agent.
The listing does not state the number of bedrooms. With 139 m² over three floors, it could have three or four bedrooms, but that is not confirmed. You would need to ask the agent for the floor plan.
The train station is 0.7 km away, about a ten-minute walk.
The neighbourhood has a mix of owner-occupied (49%) and rental properties. In the past year, 90 homes sold in the area, with an average selling price of €401,056 and an average time on market of 59 days. The price here is higher than recent sales, but monumental properties can hold their value well.
