About Rosseelsstraat 78, 'S-Gravenhage
The asking price of €335,000 is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €310,628 and the median of €295,000. However, this home is larger than average (95 m² vs 80 m²) and has a private garden, which justifies the premium. Recently sold homes in the area averaged €309,566, so the price is on the high side but not unreasonable for the space.
The energy label is C, which is average for a pre-war home. It means the property has some insulation but is not as efficient as modern builds. You can expect moderate energy costs, but improvements like double glazing or cavity wall insulation could bring it up to a B or A.
The nearest train station is 0.9 km away, which is about a ten-minute walk. This makes commuting to The Hague city centre or other cities quite convenient.
