A compact flat in the heart of Assen
This apartment on Kerkstraat 6A sits right in the lively centre of Assen, with the market square and restaurants just steps away. At 61 m² it was compact, but the A++ energy label meant low running costs. The last known asking price of €550,000 was 24% above the neighbourhood average of €444,167, which was on the high side, partly because it was a rare apartment in a historic building. For context, apartments in Assen vary widely in price and size. This home has not been online since 14 September 2026.
