Edam-Oude kom, Edam-Volendam
NeighbourhoodThis 17th-century canal house on the Voorhaven is a rare find. With its 142 m² of living space and a 172 m² plot, it offers a generous footprint in the heart of Edam. The energy label D means you'll want to budget for heating, but the character of a home built in 1560 is hard to beat. At €835,000, the price is in line with what other terraced houses in Edam-Volendam are going for.
The neighbourhood Edam-Oude kom is the historic core of Edam, with a mix of old houses, shops and restaurants. It's a compact neighbourhood with around 2,730 residents, many of them older couples and families. The streets are busy with tourists in summer, but the atmosphere is friendly and village-like. No reviews from residents are available for this neighbourhood.
For your morning bread, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and Vomar is a couple of streets away. There are several primary schools within walking distance: De Nieuwe School is a five-minute walk, and Oecumenische Basisschool De Trimaran is a couple of streets further. The municipality Edam-Volendam covers both the historic town and the surrounding polder landscape.
At the time of writing the home is listed only via Kocken Makelaars.

About Voorhaven 18, Edam
The asking price of €835,000 is in line with what other homes of this type in Edam-Volendam are listed for. The home is large (142 m²) and has a good-sized plot (172 m²), but the energy label D means running costs will be higher than in a modern home. The historic character and central location in Edam add to the value.
The energy label is D. That means the home is not very energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating bills compared to a home with label A or B. Given the age of the house (built in 1560), this is not unusual. You may want to consider improvements like insulation or double glazing, but that is a personal choice.
The nearest train station is 8.4 km away. That is a drive of about 10-15 minutes, or a longer bike ride. Edam is not directly connected to the rail network, so a car or bus is needed for train travel.
Albert Heijn is 700 metres away, and Vomar is 1.2 km. For primary education, De Nieuwe School is 333 metres away, and Oecumenische Basisschool De Trimaran is 552 metres. Secondary school SG De Triade is 927 metres away. All are within walking or cycling distance.
In the most recent data, 104 crimes were recorded in the neighbourhood. That is a moderate number for a historic town centre with tourism.
The listing does not mention a garden. The plot is 172 m², which could include outdoor space, but it is not specified.
