About Oosthavenkade 53E, Vlaardingen
The price is on the high side compared to other apartments in Vlaardingen, but this is a large 97 m² flat in a historic building from 1875 with an energy label B. The Oostbuurt is a sought-after urban neighbourhood, and the location by the water adds appeal. Without comparable sales data for this specific street, it's hard to say exactly, but the price reflects the size and character.
The energy label is B, which is quite good for a home built in 1875. It means the property is reasonably energy-efficient, so your heating bills should be manageable. You won't have the highest costs, but it's not as efficient as a modern A-label home.
The nearest train station is 5.2 km away, so it's not within walking distance. You would need a bike, bus or car to reach it.
There are several primary schools within walking distance. KC Het Visnet is 310 metres away, IKC Van Kampen is 473 metres, and IKC Het Spectrum is 742 metres. For secondary education, the nearest school is 1.6 km away.
The Oostbuurt had 305 reported crimes in the latest data, which for a neighbourhood of over 6,300 residents is moderate. It's a busy urban area, so you can expect some street-level activity, but it's not a high-crime zone.
The listing does not specify the number of rooms or the layout. With 97 m², it's a spacious apartment, but you would need to view it to see how the space is divided. The agent has not published a floor plan.
