The asking price of €435,000 is 33% below the average asking price in the Zeeheldenbuurt (€651,667) and close to the median of €450,000. Given the compact 45 m² floor area and the excellent A++ energy label, the price per m² works out at about €9,667, which is above the neighbourhood average of €8,421 per m². So while the total price is low for the area, you're paying a premium per square metre for the energy efficiency.

In the Zeeheldenbuurt, 40% of homes have label A, but none have A+ or higher among current listings. So this home stands out for its modern efficiency despite being built in 1915.
The Zeeheldenbuurt is very well-served for daily needs. There are several supermarkets within a five-minute walk, including Jumbo and Albert Heijn.
