About Da Costastraat 19, Haarlem
The asking price of €635,000 is above the neighbourhood average of €580,000 and the median of €595,000. However, this house is larger than average (113 m² vs 97 m²) and is a terraced house, which typically commands a premium. The price per m² is about €5,619, which is below the neighbourhood average of €6,592, so it may be reasonable given the size.
An F label means the home is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating costs compared to better-rated homes. In the Potgieterbuurt, about 32% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for a house built in 1906. Improvements like insulation or double glazing could help reduce energy bills.
