About Minister Kanstraat 12E, Emmen
The asking price of €435,000 is above the neighbourhood average of €421,700 and well above the median of €375,000. However, this is a modern apartment (built 2011) with an A energy label, which commands a premium. The average price per m² in the area is €3,569, so at €4,833 per m² this home is priced on the high side. Recent sales in the neighbourhood averaged €385,173, so the seller may be aiming high.
