About Marsdiep 127, Alphen Aan Den Rijn
The asking price of €280,000 is in line with the market for similar apartments in Alphen aan den Rijn. The home has 74 m² of living space and an energy label C, which is average for a flat of this age. Without specific neighbourhood sales data, it's hard to say if it's a bargain, but it's not overpriced compared to other listings.
The energy label is C, which is fairly standard for a flat built in 1973. It means the home is reasonably efficient but not top-of-the-line. You can expect moderate energy costs, but nothing extreme. If you want to improve it, you could look into better insulation or a more efficient heating system.
The nearest train station is 3.8 km away, so it's not within walking distance for most people. You would need a bike or car to get there, or take a bus.
There are several schools within walking distance. The Alphense Montessorischool (primary) is just 192 m away, and the Chr. SGM Groene Hart (secondary) is 232 m away. Ashram College is also close at 232 m. So if you have school-age children, they can walk or cycle easily.
The Stromenbuurt had 60 reported crimes in the latest data, which is relatively low for a densely populated area. The neighbourhood feels calm and family-oriented, with a park nearby.
Lidl is just 376 m away, so you can walk there in about five minutes. Albert Heijn and Jumbo are also within a 10-minute walk (533 m and 560 m respectively). So daily grocery shopping is very convenient.
The building was constructed in 1973, so it's about 50 years old. The energy label C suggests it has some insulation but not modern standards. The listing doesn't mention any recent renovations, so you might want to check the maintenance of the heating system and windows.
