About Wezenstraat 42A, Den Helder
At €185,000, this is the cheapest of the nine homes currently for sale in Centrum. The average asking price in the neighbourhood is €284,222, so this apartment sits 35% below that. However, the floor area (68 m²) is 45% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 123 m², and the energy label E will mean higher utility costs. The price reflects the compact size and older energy performance.
