About Nieuwlandersingel 44, Alkmaar
The asking price of €815,000 is above the neighbourhood average of €767,500 and the median of €767,500. However, the house is a terraced property with 126 m² of living space, which is slightly smaller than the average 153 m² for sold homes in Emmakwartier. Given the limited supply (only 12 homes for sale) and the fact that sold homes averaged €438,227, the price is on the high side but reflects the property's character and location.
The home has energy label C, which is average for a house of this age. In Emmakwartier, 45.5% of homes have label A, 9.1% label B, and 18.2% label C, so this home is in the middle range. Label C means reasonable insulation, but heating costs will be higher than for a modern home. You can expect moderate energy bills.
