Frequently asked questions
About Dorpsstraat 16A, Boskoop
Is €350,000 a fair price for this apartment?
The asking price of €350,000 is 40% below the neighbourhood average of €582,900, which makes it a keen price. However, the home has an energy label E, and the building dates from 1895, so you should consider the potential for higher energy costs and possible maintenance. The price per square metre is not directly comparable because the average in the area is based on larger homes.
What does energy label E mean for this home?
Energy label E is the fifth-highest label on the scale from A to G. It means the home is less efficient than newer properties, so you can expect higher heating and electricity bills. In the neighbourhood, most homes for sale have a better label (45.5% have label A), so this one stands out as less efficient. The label is an official registration and does not specify which aspects of the home cause the rating.
How old is the building and what does that imply?
The building was constructed in 1895, making it one of the older properties in the neighbourhood, where 27.3% of homes date from before 1945. The listing does not provide details about the condition of the roof, foundations, or installations, so you would need to rely on a survey for that information.
What is the neighbourhood like?
Voorofschebuurt has a population of about 2,410, with a mix of ages and household types. Around 49% of homes are owner-occupied, and the area has a moderate urban feel. The neighbourhood has a GP, supermarket, and primary school all within a few hundred metres, making daily errands easy.
How far is the nearest supermarket?
The nearest supermarket is an Albert Heijn just 72 metres away, so it is literally on your doorstep. A Hoogvliet is 140 metres away, and an Aldi is about 1.2 km. You have several options within walking distance.
