Wijckermolen 6F

The asking price of €260,000 is 16% below the average asking price in Meerplein (€311,208) and also below the median of €315,000. However, the home is a compact 38 m² studio, while the neighbourhood average floor area is 86 m². So you're paying less overall, but more per square metre. Given that similar-sized homes in the area are scarce, the price is competitive for what it is.

The home has energy label C. That's a decent rating, it means the home is reasonably efficient, but not top-tier. In the neighbourhood, 50% of homes have label C, while 33% have label A. You can expect moderate energy costs, but nothing extreme. If you're concerned about bills, label C is a solid middle ground.

The train station is 0.6 km away, which is about a five-minute walk. That makes commuting easy, whether you're heading to Amsterdam, Haarlem, or elsewhere. The station is well-connected, and the short distance means you can practically roll out of bed and catch your train.

Meerplein is ideal for young professionals. It's densely urban, with a high proportion of single-person households (55%) and a large 25-45 age group (40%). There are plenty of restaurants and shops within walking distance, and the train station is close. It's a lively, convenient area where you don't need a car.

Yes, you have two supermarkets just around the corner: Albert Heijn at 447 m and Vomar at 489 m. Both are within a five-minute walk, so daily shopping is very easy. There's also a Dekamarkt at 915 m and an Aldi at 1 km if you want more options.

The building was constructed in 1976, so it's nearly 50 years old. With energy label C, it's been reasonably maintained. The neighbourhood has mostly homes built between 1970 and 1990 (83%), so this fits the local stock. You may want to check the maintenance history, but the label suggests no major issues.

With a price 16% below the neighbourhood average and a compact size that appeals to singles and young professionals, this studio could be attractive for rental investment. The area has strong demand due to its urban character and train connection. However, the small floor area means it's a niche product, so resale may take longer.
