About Hortensiastraat 36, Monster
The asking price of €500,000 is above the average sold price of €478,222 for homes in this neighbourhood over the past period. However, the floor area of 107 m² is 37% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 171 m², so the price per square metre is relatively high. Only one home is currently for sale in the area, with a median price of €585,000, so this listing is below that benchmark.
The home has energy label C. This is a reasonable rating: it means the home is moderately energy-efficient, so heating costs will be manageable but not as low as with an A or B label. In the neighbourhood, two-thirds of homes have label C, and the rest are below that, so this home is typical for the area.
The nearest train station is 11.7 km away, so this is not a location for daily commuting by rail. Most residents will rely on a car or bus for longer journeys.
There are several primary schools within walking distance. R.K. Basisschool WSKO De Zeester is 380 m away, Willemsschool is 580 m away, and Christelijke Basisschool De Blinkerd is 917 m away. For secondary education, the nearest school is 2.9 km from the home, so older children may need to cycle or be driven.
Currently, only one home is listed for sale in Monster Centrumgebied, with a median price of €585,000. In the past period, nine homes were sold, with an average selling time of 51 days. This suggests a relatively quiet market with limited supply.
