About Stuyvesantstraat 83ZW, Haarlem
The price is on the high side compared to other apartments in Haarlem, but the 78 m² and pre-war character in a popular neighbourhood like Schoterveenpolder justify a premium. Without comparable sales data for the immediate area, it's hard to say exactly, but the listing reflects the desirability of the location.
Energy label D is average for a 1933 apartment. It means the home is not particularly energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating bills than a modern property. The good news is that the apartment is compact at 78 m², which helps keep costs manageable.
The nearest train station is 1.7 km away, which is about a 20-minute walk or a short bike ride. That's convenient for commuting to Amsterdam or other cities, though you're not right on top of the station noise.
