About Ambachtstraat 2B, Laren
The asking price of €625,000 is 56% below the average asking price in Laren-Centrum (€1,416,400) and well below the median of €985,000. However, the home is also smaller than average (89 m² vs 165 m²). Given the lower square footage and the need for updates typical of a 1880 property, the price is in line with the market for a compact, characterful home in a prime village centre.
The home has energy label C, which is average for a house of this age. In the neighbourhood, 26.9% of homes have label C, while 36.5% have a lower rating. Label C means reasonable insulation and moderate energy costs, but you may want to consider further improvements to reduce bills.
