About Merellaan 815, Maassluis
The asking price is €417,600, which is 39% below the neighbourhood average of €686,800. However, the average is based on only 5 available homes and includes larger properties. Given the 126 m² floor area and energy label D, the price appears competitive for the Vogelbuurt.
The energy label is D, which is average for a 1970s apartment. In the neighbourhood, about a third of homes have label D or lower, so heating costs are something to budget for. The home is not exceptionally efficient, but not the worst either.
The nearest train station is 13.8 km away, so this is not a home for daily rail commuters. The area is better suited to driving or using local bus services.
There are several primary schools within a short walk, including IKC De Westhoek (583 m) and IKC De Regenboog (617 m). Secondary schools are further away at 2.4 km, so older children may need to cycle or take the bus.
Currently, only 5 homes are listed for sale in the Vogelbuurt, which is a low number. This suggests limited choice, so if this apartment suits your needs, it may be worth viewing promptly.
The Vogelbuurt has a mix of households: about 495 with children and 640 without. With a park just 200 m away and several schools within walking distance, it is a practical area for families. The population includes many older residents too, giving a quiet, settled feel.
