Oranjepark, Alkmaar
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Jan Wilshof sits on a road that one resident describes as 'Busy road with beautiful houses.' At 167 m², it's a generous size for an apartment, and with an A energy label it's efficient too. The asking price of €899,000 is on the high side compared to other apartments in Alkmaar.
Oranjepark is a mixed area with a range of ages: a fair number of over-65s, but also families and younger residents. Most homes are owner-occupied, and the area feels safe, though one resident notes that 'sometimes strange things happen, like license plates being stolen from several cars in the neighbourhood.' The same resident adds: 'We say hello when you pass each other, but otherwise nobody really bothers with each other. Everyone does their own thing.' For more on the area, see the neighbourhood Oranjepark.
For daily shopping, the AH XL is just around the corner, and there's an Aldi a couple of streets away. Several primary schools are within walking distance, including An Nasr and Basisschool De Stek. The municipality Alkmaar offers plenty of restaurants and a park within a few minutes' walk.
At the time of writing, the home is listed via LEYGRAF Makelaars and also appears on Funda.

We say hello when you pass each other, but otherwise nobody really bothers with each other. Everyone does their own thing. It usually feels safe, but sometimes strange things happen, like license plates being stolen from several cars in the neighbourhood. On weekends, rowdy people cycle by after a night out in the city, and on evenings when AZ plays, people cycle by with football scarves and later you can faintly hear the football sounds outside. The Albert Heijn within walking distance is nice and the butcher 't Smithe is fantastic!
