About Ottoburgstraat 16, Rijswijk
The asking price is 45% above the neighbourhood average of €530,808, but this home is also 25% larger than the typical 111 m². The price per m² works out to about €5,535, which is above the neighbourhood average of €5,013 per m². Given the size and pre-war character, the price is on the high side compared to other homes in the Bomenbuurt.
The energy label is G, the lowest rating. This means the home is not energy-efficient and heating costs are likely to be high. In the neighbourhood, 73.9% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is common for pre-war properties. You can expect to spend more on energy bills compared to a modern home.
The plot size is 200 m², but the listing does not specify how much of that is garden. Typically, a terraced house of this era has a back garden, but the exact size and layout are not stated. You would need to view the property to see the outdoor space.
The Bomenbuurt has many families with children (475 households with kids) and a good mix of ages. There are several primary schools within walking distance, and a park is just 300 m away. The area is urban but green, with tree-lined streets. It is a popular choice for families looking for a pre-war home.
The nearest train station is 2.2 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short cycle.
The listing does not provide details on the condition. The home was built in 1914 and has an energy label G, so it likely needs updates to improve insulation and heating. A viewing would be necessary to assess the state of the roof, windows, and systems.
With 139 m² of living space over multiple floors, it likely has at least three bedrooms, but you would need to check the floor plan with the agent.
The listing does not mention parking. The Bomenbuurt is a dense urban area, so street parking may be available but could be limited. Some homes may have a driveway or garage, but this is not specified for this property.
