Frequently asked questions
About Koelmalaan 112, Alkmaar

The rent of €764 per month sits within the range you would expect for a social rental apartment of 66 m² in Alkmaar. With an energy label A, the heating costs should be on the lower side, which adds to the overall value. The neighbourhood's rental market shows a limited number of available homes, so this price is competitive without being exceptional.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is A, which is the most efficient category. This means the home is officially registered as having low energy consumption, so you can expect relatively modest energy bills. The label is a formal registration, not a comment on the building's condition, but it does indicate that the home should be economical to run.
