Frequently asked questions
About Schaapskooi 20, Prinsenbeek
Was €695,000 a fair price for this house?
The asking price was slightly above the neighbourhood median of €657,500, but this was a brand-new, energy-efficient home (A++++). Only 4% of local listings had an A+ label, so you're paying a premium for modern construction and low running costs. The average price per m² in the area was €4,638, and this home worked out at about €4,860 per m².
What makes the energy label A++++ special?
An A++++ label is the highest possible rating, meaning the home is extremely energy-efficient. It likely includes features like a heat pump, solar panels, and excellent insulation. In Prinsenbeek, only 4% of homes for sale had an A+ label or better, so this was a standout. You can expect very low energy bills compared to older homes.

How long do homes typically stay on the market in Prinsenbeek?

Is the house part of a new development?
