About Maerten Gerritszstraat 8, Leeuwarden
The asking price of €229,000 is below the average sale price in the Zeeheldenbuurt, which was €302,000 for homes sold recently. However, this home has an energy label F, which means higher energy costs, and the neighbourhood average for sold homes is based on a small number of transactions. Given the larger floor area (102 m² vs. 79 m² average), the price per m² works out to about €2,245, which is lower than the neighbourhood average of €3,833 per m². So it appears keenly priced.
