De Hoef I en II, Alkmaar
NeighbourhoodThis first-floor flat on Jan van Goyenstraat sits in a quiet part of De Hoef, a neighbourhood built up in the 1960s. With 85 m² of living space and an energy label C, it's a practical home for someone who wants a solid base without excessive running costs. The asking price of €325,000 is a touch above the neighbourhood average of €301,000, but given the size and condition, it's in line with what similar flats here go for. For a sense of what else is available, have a look at other apartments in Alkmaar.
De Hoef is a neighbourhood with a bit of everything: lots of singles and smaller households, a fair number of families, and a good mix of ages. The streets are lined with flats and some houses, and the area feels urban without being hectic. One resident describes it as a "Cosy flat, unfortunately the one next to it is less safe. Improvement is that more attention is paid to safety and conditions around the flat next door." That's the only review, so it's a single perspective, but it hints at a neighbourhood that's generally pleasant with some spots that could do with a bit more care.

About Jan van Goyenstraat 172, Alkmaar
The asking price of €325,000 is about 8% above the average sale price in De Hoef (€301,053) and 14% above the median (€285,000). However, this flat is 85 m², larger than the average 70 m² sold in the area. Similar flats that sold recently went for an average of €341,971, so the price is in line with the market for a property of this size.
Energy label C means the flat is reasonably efficient. You won't face sky-high energy bills, but it's not as efficient as a modern A or B label. In De Hoef, over 63% of homes have a label D or lower, so this flat is actually better than many in the neighbourhood.
One resident review mentions that while the flat itself is cosy, the neighbouring flat is less safe and could use more attention to security. The total number of crimes in the area is 172, but without a per-capita figure it's hard to compare. It's a mixed urban area, so it's worth walking around at different times to get a feel.
The train station is 1.4 km away, about a 17-minute walk or a short cycle. That gives you connections to Alkmaar centre and beyond.
Yes, there are several schools within a short walk. Two secondary schools, PCC Fabritius (280 m) and OSG Willem Blaeu (370 m), are just a couple of streets away. For primary education, Openbare Basisschool Nicolaas Beets is 443 m away, and there's also a special education school nearby.
Vomar supermarket is 418 m away, just around the corner. Albert Heijn is 572 m, a five-minute walk. For a quick bite, there's a restaurant 400 m away. Daily groceries are easy to get without a car.
There are 19 flats currently on the market in De Hoef, with prices ranging from €220,000 to €529,000. The average price per m² is €4,626, so this flat at €3,824 per m² is below that average, which is a good sign for value.
