About St. Jansstraat 79, Hoensbroek
The asking price of €199,000 is 16% below the average asking price in Hoensbroek-Centrum (€237,000). Given that the house is 32% larger than the neighbourhood average (137 m² vs 104 m²), the price per square metre works out at about €1,453, which is well below the neighbourhood average of €2,411 per m². So it appears keenly priced, though the energy label F means higher running costs.
The energy label is F, which is one of the least efficient ratings. This means the home is likely to have high heating costs, especially given its age (1930). You can expect significant heat loss through walls, windows and roof unless improvements have been made. The neighbourhood has no homes with label A or A+, and 57% have label D or lower.
The house has a living area of 137 m², which is 32% larger than the average home in the neighbourhood (104 m²). The plot is 102 m², so the garden is modest. The property is a terraced house built in 1930, typical of the area where 43% of homes date from before 1945.
