About Waddenstraat 695, Haarlem
The asking price of €300,000 is in line with the market for apartments in Haarlem. The 56 m² floor area and energy label C are typical for a flat of this age. Without comparable sales data for the Waddenbuurt, it's hard to say if it's a bargain, but it's not overpriced.
The energy label is C, which means the home has reasonable insulation and moderate energy costs. You won't face sky-high bills, but it's not as efficient as a modern A-label home. The building dates from 1973, so some upgrades may have been done.
The nearest train station is 3.9 km away, so it's not within walking distance. You'd need a bike or bus to reach it.
The Waddenbuurt has a mix of residents: about a quarter are families with children, and a third are singles. The average household size is 2.0. One resident review describes the area as outdated with litter, but that's just one opinion.
