A quiet spot in Alkmaar West
This apartment on Honthorstlaan 332 sits in De Hoef I en II, a calm corner of Alkmaar West where life moves at a gentle pace. The flat was built in 1967 and carries an energy label C, so heating costs will be moderate. With a living area of 62 m², it is a compact home, and the asking price of €295,000 sits 31% below the average asking price of €426,048 for homes in the neighbourhood. That puts the price on the low side compared with the local market, and it is also worth noting that the price per m² works out at €4,758 based on the BAG registration.

If you are looking at apartments in Alkmaar, this one stands out for its modest size and relatively low entry price.

There is no mention of a garden, balcony, or garage, and no information about insulation or heating installations. The flat is offered for sale at €295,000, and the price per m² is €4,758 based on the BAG area. Without further details from the agent, the practical layout remains something to discover in person.
