About Balidwarsstraat 1, Baarn
The asking price of €345,000 is 33% below the average asking price in Oude-Oosterhei (€511,769) and also below the median (€517,500). However, the floor area (63 m²) is 38% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 102 m². Given the compact size and E energy label, the price is in line with what you'd expect for a smaller, older home in this area.
The energy label is E, which means the home is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with a better label. In the neighbourhood, 61.5% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for the area. Improving the insulation could be a consideration.
Baarn train station is 1.3 km away, about a ten-minute walk. From there, you can reach Utrecht and Amersfoort directly.
Several primary schools are within walking distance: Basisschool De Uitkijck (349 m), Guido de Brès (554 m), Nieuwe Baarnsche School (611 m), Amalia Astroschool (625 m), and Basisschool St. Aloysius (638 m). Secondary education is 1.2 km away.

The plot is 76 m², but the listing does not specify whether there is a garden.
The house was built in 1906, so it has character features typical of that era, such as high ceilings and original details. However, the energy label E indicates that modern insulation is limited. The home is an end-of-terrace, which means it has windows on three sides.
