About Noorderwerfstraat 9, Marken
The asking price of €400,000 is on the keen side for a terraced house in Waterland, especially given the A energy label and 80 m² of living space. Without neighbourhood price-per-m² data, it is hard to compare directly, but the combination of pre-war character and modern efficiency makes it a distinctive offering.
The home has an A energy label, which is excellent for a 1938 property. This means it is very energy-efficient, with low heating costs and good insulation. You can expect a comfortable home with minimal energy waste.
