About Dwarsstraat 72, Katwijk (Zh)
Yes, it's a fair price for a 59 m² apartment with energy label B in central Katwijk. The price per square metre is in line with other apartments in the area, and the location on Dwarsstraat adds to its value. You're paying for convenience and a solid, well-maintained home.
The energy label is B, which means the home is reasonably energy-efficient. You can expect lower heating costs compared to older homes with labels D or lower, but it's not as efficient as a modern A++++ property. It's a good middle ground.
The Hoogvliet supermarket is just 68 metres away, literally on your doorstep. For more variety, Dirk is about 700 metres and Lidl is 1.1 km, both within a short walk or bike ride.
