About Vrouwestraat 7, Vlissingen

However, this home is 164 m², which is 33% larger than the neighbourhood average of 123 m².

The home has energy label E. This is common for older properties in the neighbourhood, where 47% of homes have a label of D or lower. Label E means the home is not very energy-efficient, so heating costs are likely to be higher than in a modern home. You may want to consider improvements such as insulation or double glazing.
The house was built in 1629, making it over 390 years old. In the neighbourhood, 47% of homes were built before 1945, so an old building is typical. Older homes often have character features like high ceilings or original details, but they may also require more maintenance, especially regarding the roof, foundations, and energy efficiency.

It is very walkable: supermarkets, restaurants, and a park are all within a ten-minute walk. The train station is 4.3 km away, so a bike or car is needed for longer journeys. The area has a relatively high crime rate (375 incidents), which is something to be aware of.
With 164 m² of floor area, this home is 33% larger than the neighbourhood average of 123 m². The plot is 80 m², which is typical for a historic terraced house. The extra space is a notable advantage in a neighbourhood where many homes are smaller.
