About Garenkokerskade 3, Haarlem
The asking price of €625,000 is close to the neighbourhood average of €662,500 for homes currently for sale. Given that the floor area is 110 m², the price per m² works out to about €5,682, which is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €5,060 per m². So it's priced keenly but not out of line with the market.
The energy label is E. In a neighbourhood where most homes for sale have better labels, this means you can expect higher heating costs. The building dates from 1895, so it's typical for a property of this age to have less insulation than modern homes.
Haarlem's train station is about 1.5 km away, which is a 15-20 minute walk or a short cycle ride. From there, you can reach Amsterdam, Leiden, and other cities.
There are several primary schools within walking distance: IKC De Argonauten at 295 m and Vrije School Kleverpark at 514 m. For secondary education, the Kennemer Lyceum (584 m) and Stedelijk Gymnasium Haarlem (712 m) are close by.
An Albert Heijn is just 255 m away, so you can pop out for groceries easily. Other options include another Albert Heijn at 589 m and a Dekamarkt at 755 m.
Currently, there are only 2 apartments for sale in the Garenkokerskwartier, which is a very limited supply. This suggests that properties here don't stay on the market long.
