About Engelandlaan 462, Haarlem
The asking price of €399,000 is above the neighbourhood average of €356,000 and the median of €337,500. However, this apartment is 123 m², which is 64% larger than the average of 75 m² in Landenbuurt. The price per square metre works out to about €3,244, which is lower than the neighbourhood average of €4,794 per m². So while the total price is high, you get significantly more space for your money.
Homes in Landenbuurt sell relatively quickly. Over the past period, sold properties were on the market for an average of 20 days. This suggests a fast-moving market where well-priced homes don't stay available for long. The current listing has been on the market for an unspecified time, but given the speed of sales, it may attract interest soon.
Energy label D is average for a home built in 1966. It means the property is not particularly efficient, so you can expect moderate heating and electricity costs. In the neighbourhood, 50% of homes have a label D or lower, while 25% have label A. Upgrading insulation or installing double glazing could improve the label and reduce bills, but the current label gives a realistic picture of ongoing energy expenses.
Landenbuurt has a mix of households: about 29% are families with children, and 21% are couples without children. There are several primary and secondary schools within walking distance, including Rudolf Steiner schools and OBS de Piramide. The area is very urban (address density 3,682 per km²), with many amenities nearby. However, one resident noted that rubbish on the streets is an issue, which may be a consideration for families with young children.
The nearest train station is 4 km from the apartment. That is about a 10-minute bike ride or a 15-minute bus journey. For longer commutes, the station provides access to Haarlem and beyond.
The closest supermarket is Vomar, just over 500 metres away (a five-minute walk). SPAR express is about 750 metres, and Albert Heijn is roughly 880 metres (a ten-minute walk). Dekamarkt is also within a kilometre. So daily groceries are easily accessible on foot or by bike.
The listing does not mention a garden, balcony, or terrace. The property is an apartment, so outdoor space is not included in the description.
The floor area is 123 m², which is spacious, but without room count, it's not possible to say how many bedrooms or living spaces there are. You would need to contact the agent for the layout.
