About Laanderweg 23, Heerhugowaard
At €250,000, this semi-detached house is the cheapest of the eight homes currently for sale in Buitengebied De Noord. The neighbourhood average asking price is €831,000, so this property is priced 70% below that. However, the floor area is 51 m², which is 73% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 191 m². The price per square metre works out at about €4,902, which is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €4,641 per m². So while the total price is low, you are paying a premium for the compact size.
The energy label is G, the lowest rating. This means the home is not energy-efficient and heating costs are likely to be high. In the neighbourhood, 28.6% of homes have label A, 14.3% label B, 28.6% label C, and 28.6% label D or lower. So this home is at the bottom end of the energy performance scale. You may want to consider improvements such as insulation or a new heating system, but the listing does not specify any recent upgrades.
The plot measures 165 m², which includes the house itself. The garden is not described in detail in the listing, but given the plot size, there is outdoor space around the home. The neighbourhood is rural, so the garden likely offers privacy and a green outlook. For exact dimensions and layout, you would need to view the property.
