A compact studio in the heart of Haarlem
This studio on the Gedempte Oude Gracht sits in the middle of Haarlem's historic Oude Stad, a stone's throw from the city's shops and canals. The last known asking price of €315,000 was 42% below the average asking price in the neighbourhood, which stood at €539,400. With a living area of 39 m², it was a compact home, and the price per square metre worked out at €8,077. For comparison, studios in Haarlem were listed across the municipality. This home has not been online since 22 September 2026.
The home itself
Built in 1954, this studio comes with an energy label C. The agent did not provide further details on the layout or features, so the listing was limited to the basics: a single living space, a kitchen and a bathroom, all within the 39 m² footprint. The year of construction is a fact, not a judgement on the condition.

The foundation risk indication is elevated, as the building dates from before 1970 and the area is a KCAF attention zone.
