About Mezenpad 24, Ilpendam
The asking price of €275,000 is in line with the market for apartments in Waterland. With 53 m², the price per square metre is around €5,189, which is typical for the area. The energy label D may mean slightly higher energy costs compared to more efficient homes, but the price reflects the current market conditions.
Ilpendam is a quiet village with a strong community feel. Most homes are single-family houses, so apartments are less common. The population is a mix of families and older residents, and the area has low crime rates. It is a rural setting with plenty of green space nearby, but amenities like supermarkets require a short drive.
The nearest train station is 5.7 km away. This makes it a bit of a distance for daily commuting by train, so a car or bicycle might be more practical for reaching the station. The village itself is not directly connected to the rail network.
Two primary schools are just 88 metres from the apartment: Openbare Basisschool H M van Randwijk and Rk Bs St Sebastianus. For secondary education, the nearest school is 6.5 km away, so older children would need to travel further. There are also several primary schools within a few kilometres.
The energy label is D, which is average for a home built in 1970. It means the property is not particularly energy-efficient, so you can expect moderate heating costs. Improvements like better insulation or double glazing could help reduce energy bills, but the current label is what it is.
The nearest supermarket is PLUS at 3.2 km, which is too far for a casual walk. Most residents will drive or cycle for groceries. There are several supermarkets within 5 km, including Vomar and Albert Heijn, but none are within easy walking distance.
