About Boulevard Ir de Vassy 191, Egmond Aan Zee
The price is on the high side compared to other apartments in Bergen (Noord-Holland), but the seafront location on Boulevard Ir de Vassy is a clear factor. Without comparable sales data for this specific street, it is hard to say whether it is keen or overpriced. The 73 m² floor area and E energy label mean running costs could be higher than in a more efficient home.
The energy label is E, which is below average for a home of this era (1972). You can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with a better label. The listing does not mention insulation or double glazing, so it is worth checking what improvements have been made.
The apartment is on Boulevard Ir de Vassy, which runs along the seafront, so the beach is literally on your doorstep. The nearest restaurant is just 200 metres away, and the boulevard itself is a short walk from the dunes and sea.
The closest supermarket is Jumbo, about 350 metres away, just a few minutes' walk. Albert Heijn is 1.7 km away, and there are a few other options within 5 km. For daily groceries, the Jumbo is very convenient.
Yes, there are two primary schools within a few hundred metres: IKC Het Sterrenpalet (124 m) and Kindcentrum de Branding (404 m). For secondary education, the nearest school is 6.2 km away, so a bike or car would be needed.
