A 1929 apartment in the heart of Bussum
This first-floor apartment on Kapelstraat 21D sits in the Brinklaan area of Bussum, a district that feels like the centre of town. With 129 square metres of living space according to the BAG registration (the agent lists 128), it is a generously proportioned home for its era. The asking price of €550,000 works out at €4,297 per square metre, which is on the high side compared with the average of €5,398 per square metre for apartments in Gooise Meren. The energy label is D, a label that sits in the middle of the scale.
Four rooms across two floors
The apartment has four rooms in total, including three bedrooms and one bathroom, spread over two floors. The volume of the home is 362 cubic metres, which gives a sense of the ceiling heights and proportions typical of a 1929 building. The property is located on the first floor. The agent does not mention a garden, balcony or garage, so the outdoor space is limited to what the building itself offers.
