About H J Calkoengracht 23, Volendam
The asking price of €365,000 is 22% below the average asking price in the neighbourhood (€468,929). However, the floor area of 68 m² is 40% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 114 m². So the price per square metre is actually higher than average. Whether it's fair depends on how you value the compact size versus the lower total price.
Energy label F is the second-lowest label on the scale. It means the home is not very energy-efficient, so you can expect relatively high heating and electricity costs. The label is an official registration (EP-Online) and does not directly tell you which parts of the home need attention.
The nearest train station is 10.6 km away, so commuting by train is not very convenient. For daily travel, a car or bicycle is more practical.
The neighbourhood recorded 114 total crimes in the latest data. That's a moderate number for an area of this size. The historic centre can be busy with tourists, but overall it's a typical Dutch town centre.
Yes, a park or public garden is just 0.3 km away, so green space is on your doorstep. The neighbourhood also has a restaurant at 0.3 km and a library at 0.8 km.
There are 14 homes for sale in the neighbourhood, with an average asking price of €468,929 and a median of €395,000. The average time on market for sold homes is 81 days, which suggests a fairly balanced market.
