Quiet and clean with a decent shopping centre in the neighbourhood
Auto-translated to English by AINo problem, I've lived here for 45 years, so I'm certainly happy. When someone passes away, we fly the flag at half-mast and honour them. Our flats have been renovated, completely maintenance-free, everyone is happy. Bus at the door, supermarket etc. 5 minutes walk, all that. Older, so it's nice to live here.
Auto-translated to English by AICan live here nicely, everything renovated, although there is often gossiping and peeping. I close my door and mind my own business, that's best. I certainly wouldn't want to be carried out of here and hopefully I can someday return to my hometown Hoorn, but for now it's okay.
Auto-translated to English by AIHave been living here for over a year and a half with great pleasure. Neighbourly help and cosy. More trees, for shade when it's hot.
Auto-translated to English by AINice neighbourhood (apartment block), nice people, everyone greets each other. Fun gatherings. Always a chat.

About Burgemeester D. Kooimanweg 227, Purmerend
The asking price of €275,000 is in line with the market for apartments in Purmerend. The home has 62 m² of living space and energy label C, which is reasonably efficient. Without specific neighbourhood sales data, it's hard to say more, but the price appears competitive for the area.
Overwhere-Noord is a quiet, clean neighbourhood with a decent shopping centre. Residents describe it as green and safe, with a strong sense of community. Many older residents live here, and the flats have been renovated. There is some gossiping, but most people keep to themselves. The area has a park nearby and good amenities within walking distance.
The train station is 2.2 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short bike ride. This makes it feasible for commuting to Amsterdam or other cities, though not directly on your doorstep.
Lidl and PLUS are both about 379 metres away, just a few minutes' walk. Vomar is a bit further at 922 metres, and Dekamarkt and Aldi are within 1.2 km. So daily shopping is very convenient.

The energy label is C, which means the home has reasonable energy efficiency. You can expect moderate heating costs, but it's not as efficient as A or B labels. The home was built in 1980, so some upgrades may have been done, but the label is a good starting point.
The floor area is 62 m², which typically accommodates a living room, bedroom, and possibly a second small room, but you would need to check the layout with the agent.
The listing does not mention a garden or balcony. Given that it's an apartment, outdoor space is not guaranteed.
