About Spaarndamseweg 458A, Haarlem
The asking price of €740,000 is significantly higher than the neighbourhood average of €395,000 for homes currently for sale. However, this apartment has an A++++ energy label, which is exceptional in an area where all for-sale homes have labels D or lower. The price also reflects the 99 m² floor area, which is above the neighbourhood average of 82 m². Whether it is fair depends on how much you value energy efficiency and space.
The agent has published only the street and price on Funda.
