About Draaiweg 129, Utrecht
The asking price of €495,000 is 18% below the average asking price in the Vogelenbuurt (€600,636). However, the floor area of 61 m² is 34% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 92 m². Terraced houses in Utrecht vary widely, so the price reflects the compact size and the need for some modernisation given the E energy label.
The home has an energy label E. This means it is not very energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with a better label. In the Vogelenbuurt, 37.5% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for a pre-war house. You may want to consider improvements like insulation or double glazing.
The nearest train station is 2 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short cycle ride.
