Hoefkwartier, Amersfoort
NeighbourhoodThis 64 m² apartment on Lichtpenweg is part of a new development, completed in 2024. With energy label A++, it's as efficient as they come. The asking price of €370,000 is keen compared to the €400,000 average for the few sales in the neighbourhood, making it a sharp option for a new-build home. For context, apartments in Amersfoort generally command a premium for modern specs.
The neighbourhood Hoefkwartier is a small, dense area with 530 residents, mostly young adults (55% aged 25-45) and students (31% aged 15-25). It's a very urban spot with over 2,000 addresses per km². Based on two reviews, opinions are mixed: one resident says, "It's a beautiful neighbourhood, but I'm currently paying money for a dilapidated building, which is frankly ridiculous." Another notes, "The neighbourhood will become a big construction site in the coming years. That's a shame but necessary. Still, the location is great, although there have been burglaries in the area." The area is mostly flats, with almost no family households.
For groceries, you have a Lidl and an Albert Heijn just around the corner, and a Jumbo a couple of streets away. Schools are close too: Focus College Amersfoort (secondary) is a five-minute walk, and primary school De Windroos is about the same distance. The train station is just around the corner, so commuting is easy. For a green break, a park is also on your doorstep. The municipality Amersfoort offers a good mix of urban amenities and nature.
At the time of writing, this apartment is listed through several channels, including Hendriks Makelaardij Amersfoort.

Good location in nature with far too few parking spaces
Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood will become a big construction site in the coming years. That's a shame but necessary. Still, the location is great, although there have been burglaries in the area and it could be a bit safer in my opinion. There should be more police patrols at night and in the evening.

About Lichtpenweg 148, Amersfoort
The asking price of €370,000 is below the average sale price of €400,000 for the one apartment sold recently in Hoefkwartier. Given that this is a brand-new build with top energy efficiency, the price looks keen relative to the local market. However, with only one sale as a reference, it's hard to draw firm conclusions.
This apartment has energy label A++, the highest possible rating. That means it's extremely energy-efficient, with low heating and electricity costs. In Hoefkwartier, all homes sold recently had label A or better, so this is in line with the neighbourhood's modern stock.
The train station is just 300 metres away, so you can walk there in about five minutes. That makes commuting from Hoefkwartier very convenient, whether you're heading to Utrecht, Amsterdam or elsewhere.
Hoefkwartier is a young neighbourhood: over half of residents are between 25 and 45, and nearly a third are 15-25. There are very few children or families. It's a dense, urban area with mostly flats, so expect a lively, student-and-young-professional vibe.
One resident mentioned that there have been burglaries and that more police patrols would be welcome. The total number of crimes recorded in the area is 146, but without context it's hard to judge. It's worth being aware of your surroundings, especially at night.
For daily groceries, Lidl and Albert Heijn are within a five-minute walk, and Jumbo is about ten minutes away. Schools include Focus College Amersfoort (secondary) and primary school De Windroos, both within walking distance. A park and a train station are also close by.
