About Kortenaerstraat 86, Leiden
The asking price is 21% above the neighbourhood average of €441,188, but this home is also 36% larger than the typical home in De Waard (95 m² vs 70 m²). The price per square metre works out at about €5,632, which is below the neighbourhood average of €6,517. So while the total price is high, you are getting more space for your money.
The home has energy label E. This is less efficient than newer homes, so you can expect higher heating costs. In the neighbourhood, about 35% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for a house built in 1940.
