Alexanderstraat 77

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. However, the apartment is smaller than average (64 m² vs 106 m²) and has an energy label F, which means higher energy costs. Compared to similar-sized flats in the area, the price per m² (€4,609) is above the neighbourhood average of €3,807 per m², so it's not a bargain on that measure.

The energy label is F, which is one of the least efficient ratings. That means the home is poorly insulated and you can expect relatively high heating and electricity bills. In Driemanspolder, 43.2% of homes have a label D or lower, so an F label is not unusual for the area, but it's worth factoring into your budget.

The nearest train station is 1.6 km away, which is about a 20-minute walk or a short cycle ride.

Driemanspolder is a very urban neighbourhood with a high density of addresses. It has a mix of singles, families and older residents. One resident described it as feeling like an industrial area rather than a neighbourhood, but that's just one opinion. The area has good amenities nearby, including supermarkets and schools.

Yes, there are several schools within walking distance. Basisschool De Vijverburgh and Katholieke basisschool De Paulusschool are both just around the corner (134 m). Praktijkcollege Zoetermeer for secondary education is also close by (194 m). So if you have children, the daily school run would be very short.

The listing does not state the number of rooms. Based on the floor area of 64 m², it is likely a two-bedroom apartment, but you would need to check the exact layout with the agent.
