About Torenpad 52, Boskoop
The asking price of €400,000 is 41% below the average asking price in Draaistok (€678,500) and is the lowest of the eight homes currently for sale in the neighbourhood. However, the floor area of 105 m² is 36% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 165 m². So while the price is keen, you're getting a smaller home. It's priced to sell quickly.
The home has an energy label C. That means it's reasonably efficient but not top-of-the-line. You can expect moderate energy bills compared to a label A home, but it's better than older homes with labels D or lower. In the neighbourhood, 44.4% of homes have label A or better, so this one is slightly below the local average.
The nearest supermarket is Hoogvliet, just 82 metres away, literally on your doorstep. Albert Heijn is also very close at 158 metres. So daily groceries are a quick walk, no need for a car.
