About Zijlweg 148C415, Haarlem
The asking price of €365,000 is 49% below the average asking price in Bloemenbuurt (€709,000). However, this apartment is also smaller than the neighbourhood average (57 m² vs 119 m²). The price per square metre works out to about €6,400, which is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €6,112 per m². So while the total price is low, you are paying a premium for the modern, energy-efficient build.
The energy label is A, which is very efficient. This means the apartment is well insulated and has low heating costs. In Bloemenbuurt, only 12.5% of homes have label A, so this is a strong point. You can expect low energy bills compared to older properties in the area.
The nearest train station is 1.5 km away, which is about a 15-20 minute walk or a short cycle. This gives you direct connections to Haarlem's city centre and beyond.
