About Merelstraat 13, Katwijk
At 93 m² and with an energy label D, the price of €395,000 is in line with what other apartments in Katwijk are going for. The neighbourhood is well established, and the home is a traditional build from 1955. You are paying for a solid floor area in a quiet, safe part of town.
The energy label is D, which is average for a home from 1955. It means the property is not particularly energy efficient, so you can expect higher heating bills compared to a modern home. Insulation and heating systems are likely older, but the label is stated by the seller.
The nearest train station is 8.2 km away, so it is not within walking distance. You would need a bike, car or bus to reach it. The area is better suited for those who drive or work locally.
Zuid-Oost has a mix of households, with about 115 families with children and 85 without. There are plenty of older residents too, so it is a diverse area. The park nearby is a plus for kids, and crime is low. Schools are a short walk or cycle away.
Yes, Lidl is just around the corner at 565 metres, and Hoogvliet and Dirk are within a five-minute walk. Albert Heijn and Coop are a bit further, about a ten-minute walk. Daily groceries are very convenient.
The address density is 2,263 per km², which is strongly urban. That means you have shops, services and neighbours close by, but it is not as dense as a city centre. The neighbourhood feels lively but not overcrowded.
