About Voorhaven 42, Edam
The asking price is €385,000 for a 74 m² corner house with an F energy label. Without specific neighbourhood market data, it's hard to say exactly how it compares, but given the size and energy performance, it seems on the high side for Edam.
Energy label F means the house is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a modern home. It's worth looking into insulation and heating improvements, but the exact costs depend on usage and future energy prices.
The nearest train station is 8.4 km away, so you'll need a car or bus for train travel. The area is not well connected by rail.
There are several primary schools within walking distance: De Nieuwe School (259 m), Oecumenische Basisschool De Trimaran (558 m), and Openbare Basisschool De Piramide (669 m). For secondary education, SG De Triade is 853 m away.
The neighbourhood recorded 104 total crimes, which is moderate for a historic centre. It's generally a quiet residential area, but as with any town centre, you should take usual precautions.
The house was built in 1915, so it's over a century old. The listing doesn't mention any renovations, so you should expect some maintenance and possibly outdated systems. The F energy label suggests the insulation and heating are not up to modern standards.
