We live in a beautiful apartment on the Bentwoud and enjoy it every day in every season! The Bentwoud in particular is excellently maintained!!! The synergy and looking out for each other in the apartment complex disappoints us! That could be better! Otherwise, we live here just fine, and we also feel safe here!
Auto-translated to English by AIWe live on the Bentwoud, and you can see, smell and feel it! I always have the feeling that we live in a healthy environment! We also feel safe in the beautiful apartment building. The only thing that disappoints us is the sense of community in our complex Panoramique Bentwoud. Neighbours hardly know each other and have little interest in others. We often organise something but there is little to no interest, a shame especially because there are many elderly people living there who could use some help and/or attention!
Auto-translated to English by AIEverything is easily accessible. Schools, shops, doctors. Beautiful walking/cycling routes. Quite a quiet residential area.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a nice neighbourhood, close to everything
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a really nice neighbourhood but it could be better, there's a small playground for the children and everyone lives in a terraced house which is handy because you can just walk over to reach everyone, of course very handy but some changes could be made, it's not a very hygienic environment. I've often cleaned up the area but the next day it's messy again. And the safety in this neighbourhood is just about sufficient, this is because there are often loitering youths at the playground during the day and in the evening, most children are afraid of them, I hope something can be done about this. With this I hope to win the €100 gift voucher. Greetings from the whole neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AII've lived here for 14 years and I'm happy to live here!

About Burgemeester Augustijnstraat 170, Zoetermeer
The asking price is 16% below the average asking price in the neighbourhood (€687,386), and also slightly under the median of €582,000. Given that the apartment is new-build (2023) with an A+++ label, the price looks competitive. However, the floor area of 105 m² is 28% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 146 m², so you are paying for efficiency and low energy costs rather than sheer square metres.
The apartment has an energy label A+++, which is the highest possible rating. This means the home is extremely energy-efficient, with very low heating and electricity costs. In the neighbourhood, 38.3% of homes have label A+ or better, so this apartment is ahead of the curve.
The nearest train station is 5.2 km away. That is a ten-minute drive or a longer cycle ride. The area is better suited for those who rely on a car or enjoy cycling, as public transport connections are not within walking distance.
Oosterheem-Noord-Oost is very family-oriented: nearly half of all households have children, and there are several primary schools within a five-minute walk. Residents mention the safe, green environment and the easy access to shops and schools. The sense of community in some apartment complexes could be better, but the overall feeling is positive.
In the neighbourhood, sold homes took an average of 53 days to sell. That is a fairly typical period, suggesting a balanced market without extreme pressure. The current listing has 44 homes for sale in the area, giving buyers a reasonable choice.
The listing does not mention a garden, balcony or terrace. The plot size is not stated either. However, the Bentwoud forest is on your doorstep, so there is plenty of green space for walks and recreation just outside the building.
