Voorhaven 39A
Edam-Oude kom, Edam-Volendam
A home in the old heart of Edam
This apartment on Voorhaven 39A sits in the middle of Edam's historic centre, where the streets are narrow and the water is never far away. The building dates from 1989, so it is a relative newcomer among the old facades. With a living area of 52 square metres, this is a compact home, and the asking price of €259,500 works out at €4,990 per square metre. That price is in line with the market, according to the comparison with other apartments in Edam-Volendam. This listing does not state the energy label, so you will have to factor in unknown energy costs.
