About Roekstraat 31, Leeuwarden
At €249,500, this is the cheapest home currently for sale in Vogelwijk. The average asking price in the neighbourhood is €290,278, and homes that sold recently went for an average of €316,857. However, this house has a smaller floor area (71 m²) than the neighbourhood average (95 m²) and an F energy label, which means higher heating costs. So the price is in line with what you'd expect for a smaller, older home that needs some work.
The energy label is F, which is one of the least efficient ratings. This means the home is likely to have high heating costs, especially given its 1930s construction. In the neighbourhood, half of the homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for the area, but you should budget for higher energy bills.
Vogelwijk is a quiet, calm neighbourhood with a mix of residents. About 22% of households have children, and there are several primary schools within walking distance, including IKC Maria Louise (252 m) and Basisschool Sint Thomas (541 m). The area is safe, with only 38 total crimes reported, and residents describe it as peaceful.
For daily shopping, Jumbo is 246 m away and Albert Heijn is 769 m. There are also several primary schools within a few hundred metres, a GP practice at 500 m, and a park or public garden at 500 m. The train station is 2.1 km away, and the city centre is easily reachable by bike.
This home is priced at €249,500, which is the lowest among the nine homes currently for sale in Vogelwijk. The average asking price is €290,278, and the median is €295,000. However, this house is smaller (71 m² vs 95 m² average) and has an older energy label, so the lower price reflects that.
The plot is 70 m², but the listing does not specify whether there is a garden.
