About Marktstraat 6, Bolsward
The asking price is €899,000, which is 95% above the neighbourhood average of €460,864. However, the home is also 169% larger than the average (485 m² vs 180 m²). So per square metre, the price is actually below the neighbourhood average of €3,080/m², roughly €1,854/m². Whether that is fair depends on how you value the historic character and the size.
The energy label is E. This is an official registration from EP-Online. Label E is on the lower end of the scale, so you can expect higher energy costs than with a more efficient label. The label does not tell you exactly what causes the rating, it could be the heating system, ventilation or other factors.

Auto-translated to English by AIQuiet neighbourhood where people of all ages live. A primary school and a shop. But also (especially in summer) nuisance from youths with a lot of noise and fireworks, while there are many dogs here. And it's not youths from this neighbourhood.

Auto-translated to English by AIIt used to be a very quiet, friendly neighbourhood but is rapidly deteriorating. Now there is rubbish everywhere, wrecked scooters, discarded fridges, printers, old garden chairs, etc. A lot of nuisance from "campers" with loose pitbulls. Arson, fights, etc.
