NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Hoge Gouwe sits in the oldest part of Gouda, where the streets hum with activity and the canals are never far away. At 81 m² it is compact but efficient, and with an A energy label it is unusually efficient for a 1903 building. The asking price of €319,000 is 43% below the neighbourhood average of €564,538, which makes it a keen entry into the market compared to other apartments in Gouda.
Raam e.o. is the historic core of Gouda, with a very high address density of 3,465 addresses per km², you are never far from a shop, a café or a landmark. The one resident review sums it up bluntly: "Ugly but in a top location." They note that "all possible amenities are in the neighbourhood" but also that "King's Day is always way too busy" and there is "very little greenery." The neighbourhood has a young profile, with the largest age group being 25 to 45 years old, and many single-person households. It is a lively, urban place where convenience comes at the cost of peace and quiet. For a fuller picture, see the Raam e.o. neighbourhood.
Your daily bread is just around the corner at Albert Heijn, and for a bigger shop the Coop and Lidl are a couple of streets away. For school runs, the r.k. basisschool St. Aloysius is on your doorstep, and the Casimirschool is a five-minute walk. The train station is a ten-minute walk away, and the city centre with its restaurants and shops is literally a minute's walk.

The houses are really ugly, everything is expensive. No students. All possible amenities in the neighbourhood. King's Day is always way too busy. Very little greenery, and there are often bits of plastic and stuff lying in the street. There might be a neighbourhood get-together but only 8 people go.

About Hoge Gouwe 39C, Gouda

Raam e.o. is the historic centre of Gouda, very densely built with a young population. One resident describes it as "ugly but in a top location" with all amenities nearby, but also notes it is busy on King's Day and lacks greenery. The area has many singles and few families, and the streets can be littered at times. It is a vibrant, urban neighbourhood where convenience is high but tranquillity is low.
Gouda train station is 1.5 km away, which is about a ten-minute walk. From there you can reach Utrecht, Rotterdam and The Hague directly. The station is well connected, but the exact travel times depend on your destination.
The apartment has an energy label A, which is very efficient for a building from 1903. This means heating costs are likely to be low compared to older homes in the area. In the neighbourhood, only 16.7% of homes have label A, so this is a strong point.
Yes, Albert Heijn is just around the corner at 305 m, and Coop and Lidl are both about 560 m away. For daily groceries you can walk to the Albert Heijn in a few minutes. There is also a SPAR at 760 m for top-ups.
The nearest primary school is r.k. basisschool St. Aloysius at 262 m, followed by Casimirschool at 379 m. Both are within a five-minute walk. For secondary education, the nearest school is 1.2 km away, about a ten-minute walk.
The floor area is 81 m², which typically accommodates a living room, kitchen, bedroom and possibly a second bedroom, but the exact layout is not provided.
The listing does not mention a garden, balcony or terrace. Given the central location and the age of the building, outdoor space is unlikely but not confirmed. The nearest park or public garden is 0.6 km away.
