About Foswerd 17, Drachten
The asking price of €330,000 is in line with the market. The average price for a semi-detached home in De Wiken noordoost is €350,000, but that is based on a single listing. Recently sold homes in the neighbourhood went for an average of €319,300, so the asking price sits close to recent sale prices.
The home has energy label C. That is a decent rating for a house built in 1974. You can expect reasonable energy costs, though not as low as a modern A-rated home. Half of the homes in the neighbourhood have label A, so this one is slightly less efficient than the best in the area.
