About Elisabethstraat 9A, Geleen
The asking price of €175,000 is significantly below the neighbourhood average of €346,985 and is the lowest among the 33 homes currently for sale in Geleen-Centrum.

The home has an energy label D. This is a mid-range rating, meaning the property is reasonably efficient but not as well insulated as modern homes.

You can expect moderate energy costs, but it's worth noting that the home was built in 1930, so some upgrades may have been made over time.
