About Kielstraat 40, Sneek
The asking price of €199,000 is 68% below the average asking price in Het Eiland (€615,000), but the apartment is also smaller than average (80 m² vs 133 m²). Given the lower floor area and energy label D, the price is in line with what you'd expect for a smaller, older apartment in this neighbourhood.
The energy label is D. This means the home has moderate energy efficiency. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a more modern home, but it's not the worst label. In the neighbourhood, all available homes for sale have label C or better, so this one is slightly below the local standard.
The train station is 1.4 km away, which is about a ten-minute walk. This makes it convenient for commuting to nearby cities like Leeuwarden or further afield.
