About Anthonie Fokkerstraat 42, Bussum
At 50 m² and with an E energy label, the price of €325,000 is in line with what other apartments in Gooise Meren are asking. The neighbourhood is well established and the flat is in a quiet street, so you're paying for location and character rather than modern efficiency.
An E label means the home is not particularly energy efficient, so heating costs will be higher than in a modern flat. The building dates from 1955, so insulation and glazing are likely original or only partly upgraded. You can expect a noticeable heating bill in winter.
The nearest train station is 2.2 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short bike ride. That puts Amsterdam and Utrecht within easy reach, though you'll need wheels or a bus to get to the station.
Lidl is 350 metres away, just around the corner. Dekamarkt and Albert Heijn are within a ten-minute walk, so daily groceries are easy. There's also a SPAR express and an Ekoplaza a bit further out.
Midden Eng-Oost has a good mix of ages, with about 320 households with children and several primary schools within walking distance. The area is quiet and green, with a park just 300 metres away. It's a solid choice for families.
Primary school De Zonnewijzer is 517 metres away, and De Hoeksteen is about 1 km. For secondary education, Elan College (special needs) is 553 metres, and De Fontein is just over 1 km. All are within a comfortable walk or bike ride.
