The Zeeheldenbuurt is a predominantly residential area with mostly pre-war houses and a strong sense of community.

Almost all homes (97%) are single-family houses, and 84% are owner-occupied. For more on the area, see the neighbourhood Zeeheldenbuurt.
Your morning bread run is just a couple of streets away at Albert Heijn or Aldi. For primary school, the International School Haarlem is a five-minute walk, and secondary school ECL (havo, atheneum, gymnasium) is similarly close. A GP is around the corner, and a restaurant is even closer. The municipality Haarlem offers all the amenities you'd expect from a city, with the train station a ten-minute walk away.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including DMC Haarlem. The energy label is E, which is less efficient than most of the current supply in the neighbourhood, something to factor in when budgeting for running costs.

About Theemsstraat 74, Haarlem
The asking price is 46% above the neighbourhood average of €778,750, making it the most expensive of the 8 homes currently for sale in the Zeeheldenbuurt. However, with 181 m² of living space (45% larger than the average of 125 m²) and a 153 m² plot, the price reflects its size and character. Recently sold homes in the area went for an average of €724,580, but those were smaller. Whether it is fair depends on how much you value the extra space and the pre-war charm.
The energy label is E. In the Zeeheldenbuurt, most homes for sale have better labels: 9.1% are label A, 18.2% label B, and 45.5% label C. Only 27.3% are label D or lower. An E label means the home is less energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating costs. It may be worth investigating insulation and heating upgrades, but the exact costs depend on the current systems.
