About Bagijnestraat 54, Leeuwarden
The asking price of €750,000 is 51% above the neighbourhood average of €498,167 and is the highest among the six homes currently for sale in Nieuwestad. However, this home is also much larger than average: 307 m² versus 141 m². The price per m² works out to about €2,443, which is below the neighbourhood average of €4,274 per m². So while the total price is high, you are getting significantly more space.
