About Hoeverkade 4, Alkmaar
The asking price of €489,000 is above the recent average sale price of €452,600 for homes sold in the neighbourhood. However, only five homes have sold recently, so the market is thin. The house has an energy label D, which is less efficient than the newer homes in the area, and it dates from 1925. Whether the price is fair depends on how much you value the location and character.
The energy label is D. This means the home is moderately efficient. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with label A or B, but it is not the worst. The neighbourhood has a high share of A+ labels (100% of recent sales), so this home is less efficient than many nearby properties.
The train station is 0.6 km away, which is about a five-minute walk. This makes it very convenient for commuting or day trips.
