Herman Costerstraat 14

At €229,000, this home is the cheapest of the six currently for sale in Transvaalwijk and sits 38% below the neighbourhood's average asking price of €371,833. However, the floor area (92 m²) is 31% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 133 m², so the price per square metre is in line with the market. It's a keen entry point for a pre-war terraced house in this urban neighbourhood.

The home has an energy label C, which is fairly average for a house built in 1910. In the neighbourhood, 16.7% of homes have label C, while the majority (83.3%) have a label D or lower. Label C means the home is reasonably efficient, but you can expect moderate heating costs, not as low as a modern A-label, but better than many older homes in the area.

The nearest train station is 2 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short bike ride. Leeuwarden's main station connects to the rest of the Netherlands, so commuting by train is feasible from this location.
