About Markerkade 16, Purmerend

Given the lower floor area and the fact that similar apartments in Purmerend often sell for more per square metre, the price is keen, it reflects the smaller size and the mixed reputation of the area.
The apartment has energy label B, which is efficient. You can expect relatively low heating and electricity costs compared to older homes with labels D or lower.
