About Klompenmaker 41, Alphen Aan Den Rijn

The rent of €808 per month is for a new-build apartment of 58 m² with an A+++ energy label. Given that it is brand new and highly energy-efficient, the price is in line with what you would expect for this type of home in Alphen aan den Rijn. The energy label means your heating and electricity bills should be modest, which adds to the overall value.
What does the A+++ energy label mean for my energy costs?
An A+++ label is the most efficient rating a home can have. It means the property is designed to use very little energy for heating and hot water, so your monthly energy bills should be low. This is a significant advantage compared to older homes with lower labels, and it is one of the reasons the rent is set at this level.
When will the apartment be available?
