About Louis Couperusplaats 133, Capelle Aan Den Ijssel
The asking price is 43% below the neighbourhood average of €522,250, but the apartment is also 33% smaller than the average home in Dichtersbuurt (85 m² vs 126 m²). Given the compact size and energy label G, the price is in line with what you'd expect for a smaller, less efficient home in this area.
The energy label is G, the lowest rating. That means the home has poor insulation and high heating costs are to be expected. In the neighbourhood, half of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for a property built in 1967.
The nearest train station is 4.3 km away, so it's not within walking distance. You'd need a bike or bus to reach it.
The neighbourhood has a mix of ages, with a good number of families (260 households with children) and older residents (350 aged 65+). One resident described it as a place where you "stay on your own block", quiet and local.
There are currently 8 homes for sale in Dichtersbuurt, with prices ranging from €259,000 to €1,095,000. This apartment is at the lower end of that range.
The Openbare Basisschool Klim-Op is just around the corner (397 m), and the Comenius Lyceum is a five-minute walk (568 m). There are also several other primary schools within a ten-minute walk.
