About Mechelenstraat 12, Breda
The asking price of €369,000 is slightly above the neighbourhood median of €325,000, but this home is larger than average (119 m² vs 95 m²). The average price per m² in Biesdonk is €3,595, which would put this home at around €428,000 if priced purely on m², so the asking price is actually quite reasonable given the extra space.
The home has energy label B, which is good for a house built in 1965. In Biesdonk, about 26% of homes have label B, and 32% have label A. Label B means the home is reasonably efficient, so heating costs should be manageable, though not as low as a modern A-label home.
The nearest train station is 2.6 km away, which is about a 30-minute walk or a short bike ride. Breda's main station offers connections to major cities, but the distance means you will likely cycle or drive to the station.
