Definitely get an expert who goes through it with you. You don’t want any nasty surprises. I find the price quite low for such a well-equipped place. Of course, it also depends a lot on the location.
For a half-timbered house, I would always recommend having a building expert who is familiar with half-timbered houses inspect it before purchasing. Especially with these buildings, many renovations that look "super stylish" and "really well done" to laypeople ultimately mean the death of the house (moisture / rot problems) due to the use of wrong materials and incorrect techniques.
In any case, with such a house, besides the normal acquisition and incidental costs, you should always plan somewhat more generous maintenance/repair reserves in the monthly cost calculations.
