About Frans Halsstraat 60, Zaandam
The asking price is 36% above the neighbourhood average of €311,625, but this home is also 64% larger than the typical 64 m² in the buurt. The price per square metre works out to about €4,048, which is below the neighbourhood average of €5,206 per m². So while the total price is high, you're getting more space for your money compared to other homes currently for sale.
The home has energy label C, which is average for a house of this age. It means the property is reasonably efficient but not top-tier. You can expect moderate energy bills, though exact costs depend on usage. In the neighbourhood, 25% of homes have label A, 25% label B, and 50% are D or lower, so this home sits in the middle.
The nearest train station is 1.2 km away, which is about a 15-minute walk. That makes commuting to Amsterdam or elsewhere in the region quite feasible without a car.
There are several schools within walking distance. Zaanlands Lyceum (secondary) is about 436 m away, and Openbare basisschool Hannie Schaft (primary) is 617 m away. Both are within a ten-minute walk, making the morning school run easy.
The neighbourhood recorded 68 total crimes in the latest data, which for a densely populated urban area is moderate.
The listing does not mention a garden, but the plot size is 140 m², which typically includes some outdoor space. However, without explicit confirmation from the agent, it's best to assume the plot may be partly built-up or paved. The nearest park or garden is just 0.3 km away.
