About Grootzand 2-105, Bolsward
The asking price of €440,000 is very close to the neighbourhood median of €445,000. However, the home is 80 m², while the average sold apartment in the area is 180 m². The price per m² (€5,500) is higher than the neighbourhood average of €3,080 per m², partly because of the excellent energy label A+. So you pay a premium for efficiency and location, not for space.
This apartment has an A+ energy label, which is exceptional for Bolsward binnen De Wallen. Only 13% of homes for sale in the neighbourhood have A+ or better. With a building from 1890, the label suggests thorough modernisation, likely high-performance glazing, insulation and a heat pump. You can expect low energy bills, though exact costs depend on usage.
