About Frederik Hendrikstraat 98, Alphen Aan Den Rijn
At €300,000, this is the cheapest apartment currently for sale in Burgemeester Visserpark. The average asking price in the neighbourhood is €563,929, so this home is 47% below that. However, the floor area (64 m²) is also 47% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 121 m². The price per m² works out to about €4,688, which is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €4,559 per m². So it's priced keenly in absolute terms but in line with the market per square metre.
The energy label is C, which is average for a home of this age (built in 1964). In the neighbourhood, 29.4% of homes have label C, while 47% have A or A+. A C label means reasonable insulation and moderate energy costs, not the most efficient, but not the worst either. You can expect typical heating bills for a 64 m² apartment with this label.
The nearest train station is 1.9 km away, which is about a 20-minute walk or a short cycle ride. This makes it feasible for commuting, though not directly on your doorstep.
