Frequently asked questions
About Alexanderstraat 77, Zoetermeer
Is €295,000 a fair price for this apartment?
The asking price of €295,000 is 26% below the average asking price in Driemanspolder (€399,987) and also below the median of €340,000. Given that the apartment is 64 m², which is smaller than the neighbourhood average of 106 m², the price per m² works out at about €4,609, which is higher than the neighbourhood average of €3,807 per m². So it is priced keenly overall, but the smaller size means a higher per-square-metre cost.
What is the energy label F and what does it mean?
The energy label is F, which is the second-lowest rating on the scale. This means the home is not very energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating and electricity costs compared to a home with a better label. The label is an official registration from EP-Online and does not necessarily indicate the condition of the insulation or installations, it could be due to the heating system.
How is the public transport connection from Driemanspolder?
The nearest train station is 1.6 km away, which is about a 20-minute walk or a short cycle. That gives you access to the wider rail network.
What is the neighbourhood like in terms of safety?
The CBS data records 374 total crimes in the neighbourhood, but without a per-capita figure or comparison, it is hard to judge. The area is urban and densely populated, which can sometimes correlate with higher crime rates. For a detailed picture, you would need to check local crime maps.
Are there any parks or green spaces nearby?
Yes, a park or public garden is just 0.3 km away, a couple of streets away. That makes it easy to get some fresh air without going far. The neighbourhood itself is quite built-up, so this green space is a welcome feature.
How many rooms does this apartment have?
The floor area is 64 m², which typically accommodates a living room, a bedroom, and possibly a second small bedroom or a study, but you would need to check the floor plan with the agent.
