Binnenstad, Apeldoorn
AreaA central apartment in Apeldoorn's Binnenstad
This apartment on Hofstraat sits right in the thick of things, with the city's pulse just outside your door. At 79 m² it's compact but well laid out, and the 1961 build gives it a solid feel. The energy label C means it's reasonably efficient.

The Binnenstad neighbourhood
The Binnenstad is the historic heart of Apeldoorn, with over 6,000 residents packed into a very urban setting (3,381 addresses per km²). It's a young area, nearly 40% of residents are between 25 and 45, and mostly single-person households (2,765 out of 4,170). One resident sums it up bluntly: "Disorganised mess. A lot of nuisance from drug use and drug waste. Cyclists in pedestrian area." That's based on a single review, so take it as one perspective. The neighbourhood Binnenstad has a mix of old and new housing, with 30% built before 1945 and 36% from 1970-1990.
Life on the street
For daily shopping, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and there's an AH to go a couple of streets away. Boni and Dekamarkt are a five-minute walk. Schools are a ten-minute walk: Montessori Kindcentrum Apeldoorn and PCBO Koningin Wilhelmina for primary, and UGO verkennend vmbo for secondary. The train station is a ten-minute walk, and the municipality Apeldoorn offers plenty of green space with a park 0.7 km away.

Frequently asked questions
About Hofstraat 107, Apeldoorn
Is €369,500 a fair price for this apartment?
The asking price of €369,500 is slightly above the neighbourhood median of €339,000 but below the average of €413,256. Given that the apartment is 79 m² (35% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 121 m²), the price per m² works out to about €4,677, which is a bit higher than the neighbourhood average of €4,336 per m². So it's priced in line with the market, not a bargain but not over the top either.
What is the Binnenstad like to live in?
The Binnenstad is the busy city centre of Apeldoorn, very urban with lots of shops, restaurants (0.2 km away), and nightlife. It's densely populated, mostly with singles and young adults. The one resident review mentions nuisance from drug use and cyclists in pedestrian areas, so it's not for everyone. But if you like being in the middle of everything, it's hard to beat.
How far is the train station?
Apeldoorn train station is 1.3 km away, about a ten-minute walk. From there you can reach Amsterdam, Utrecht, and other cities directly.
What supermarkets are nearby?
Albert Heijn is just 399 m away, and AH to go is 436 m. Boni and Dekamarkt are about 600-660 m, so you have several options within a five- to ten-minute walk.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is C, which is average for a 1961 apartment. It means the home is reasonably efficient but not top-tier. You can expect moderate energy bills, but nothing extreme.
Is this a good investment?
The neighbourhood has a mix of housing and a young population, with 160 homes sold in the past period at an average price of €355,373. The apartment is priced slightly above that, but the central location and compact size could appeal to buyers looking for a city base. No guarantees, but the market here is active.
