About Linnaeuslaan 4, Haarlem
The asking price is €3,000,000. Recent sales in Zuiderhout averaged €1,395,000, but those were for different property types, mostly smaller homes. A detached house of this size (372 m²) on a 711 m² plot is rare in this neighbourhood, so the price reflects its uniqueness. It's on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average, but that's expected for a property of this calibre.
The home has energy label C. That means it's reasonably efficient for a house built in 1910. You can expect moderate energy costs, but it's not as efficient as a modern home. The label is based on the building's insulation, heating system and glazing, so you may want to consider future improvements if you're looking to reduce your carbon footprint.
The plot measures 711 m². The listing does not explicitly mention a garden, but with a plot of this size, there is certainly outdoor space. The exact layout, whether it's a garden, terrace or courtyard, is not stated, so you would need to check the property details or visit to see for yourself.
