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 De Roerdomp 77, Purmerend
At 62 m² with a B energy label and a 1978 build, the price of €259,000 is in line with what you'd expect for an apartment in Overwhere-Noord. The neighbourhood is quiet and well maintained, which adds to the value. Without comparable sales data in the immediate area, it's hard to say if it's a bargain, but it's not overpriced for the market.
Overwhere-Noord is a green, quiet neighbourhood with a strong sense of community. Many residents are older, and the flats have been renovated. One resident describes it as 'quiet and clean with a decent shopping centre'. Another says 'everyone is happy' and mentions the bus stop and supermarket are a five-minute walk away. It's a safe, well-maintained area.
The nearest train station is 2.2 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short bus ride. The bus stop is close by, so commuting is manageable even without a car.
Lidl and PLUS supermarkets are both just 150 metres away, so daily shopping is very convenient. There are several primary schools within walking distance, including Oecumenische Basisschool KlimOp at 186 metres. Secondary schools are about a ten-minute walk away.
The apartment has an energy label B, which is quite efficient. You can expect relatively low energy bills compared to older homes with lower labels. The building is from 1978, so it likely has some insulation, but not as modern as a new build.
With 62 m² and two bedrooms, it's more suited to a couple or a single person. The neighbourhood has many older residents and a quiet atmosphere, so it's not a typical family area. However, there are schools nearby and a park on the doorstep, so it could work for a small family.
