Molendijk, Castricum
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on De Loet sits in a leafy part of Castricum-Oost, with the dunes and beach never far away. At 101 m² it offers generous living space for a flat, and the price of €395,000 is noticeably keen, about 21% below the average asking price in the neighbourhood. That makes it a rare find among apartments in Castricum.
The neighbourhood Molendijk is a well-established area with a mix of housing, mostly single-family homes, but also a fair share of apartments. The population is older on average, with a third of residents aged 65 or over. One resident describes it as "reasonably okay" but points out that the complex itself needs renovation: "The insulation of the homes, including mine, is so poor that it feels like your ceiling is a thin garden fence." They also mention safety concerns, though the police are quick to respond. It's a neighbourhood with plans for new construction nearby, but this particular block hasn't been included.
For your morning bread, Vomar is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn is a couple of streets away. There are several primary schools within walking distance: Vrije school Castricum and Kindcentrum Helmgras are both a few minutes' walk, and Basisschool De Kustlijn is a ten-minute stroll. The municipality Castricum has good amenities, with a GP practice and a park both on your doorstep, and the train station is a ten-minute walk away.
At the time of writing the home is listed only via Teer Makelaars Castricum B.V.

The neighbourhood is reasonably okay, there are plans for new construction in the Geesterduin 2.0 area, but our complex is not included in this renovation. The insulation of the homes, including mine, is so poor that it feels like your ceiling is a thin garden fence; everything that moves above crashes loudly into the bedroom below. Neighbours also suffer severely from mould due to the poor insulation. In terms of safety, the complex is easy to access for burglaries and is very prone to break-ins. The police are often quick to respond if needed.
