Westergracht 53

At €350,000 for 46 m², the price per square metre is higher than the neighbourhood average of €518,333 for sold homes. However, the central location and good energy label (A) add value. Whether it's fair depends on how much you value living in this part of Haarlem.

The energy label is A, which is very efficient. For a 1905 building, that's excellent and means heating costs should be relatively low. You won't need to worry about major energy upgrades.

The nearest train station is 2 km away, about a 25-minute walk or a short bike ride. That's a reasonable distance for commuting to Amsterdam or other cities.

There are several primary schools within walking distance: the Koorschool van het Muziekinstituut van de Kathedraal is 18 m away, the Cruquiusschool is 226 m, and Openbare Basisschool De Peppelaer is 284 m. For secondary education, ECL (havo, atheneum, gymnasium) is 683 m away.

The neighbourhood recorded 108 total crimes, which is moderate for a dense urban area. It's a typical city neighbourhood where you'd want to lock your bike, but not a high-crime zone.

This is an apartment, built in 1905. It's part of a classic Haarlem building, likely with shared entrance and stairs. The exact layout is not described in the listing.
