A classic Haarlem townhouse
This 1905 townhouse on Harmenjansweg sits in the Sportliedenbuurt, a lively part of Haarlem. With 133 m² of living space, it is noticeably roomier than the neighbourhood average for a home of this type. The last known asking price of €585,000 was keen compared to the local median of €819,000, partly because the home needed updating. For context, terraced houses in Haarlem vary widely in price and condition. This home has not been online since 13 July 2026.
