Vossepark, Leeuwarden
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Europaplein sits in a leafy part of Leeuwarden, with the park just a couple of streets away. At 80 m² and with a C energy label, it's a practical home for someone who wants a good-sized flat without the premium of a newer build. The asking price of €225,000 is keen compared to the neighbourhood average of €279,853, and there are fewer than 20 apartments for sale in the area, so supply is tight. For context, apartments in Leeuwarden vary widely, but this one is on the affordable side.
