Schoonhoven-Oude Stad, Krimpenerwaard
NeighbourhoodThis apartment sits on one of Schoonhoven's most picturesque quays, with the gentle water of the Haven right outside. At 67 m² it's compact, but the A+ energy label is a rare find in a 1910 building. The asking price of €525,000 is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood median of €509,500, partly because of the superb efficiency rating. For context, apartments in Krimpenerwaard average €4,961 per m², so this one commands a premium.
The Schoonhoven-Oude Stad neighbourhood is the historic heart of Schoonhoven, with beautiful old buildings and a lively quayside. One resident sums it up: "Lovely to live here. Everything you need is nearby, the houses and surroundings are beautiful. The only downside is that it's almost impossible to find a home." Based on that single review, the neighbourhood scores a 7.88 out of 10. The area has a mix of ages, with many one-person households and a fair share of older residents. Most homes are owner-occupied, and a large proportion were built before 1945.
Your daily routine is easy here. For bread and groceries, SPAR is just around the corner, Albert Heijn a five-minute walk, and PLUS a couple of streets away. Primary school obs Koningin Emma is on your doorstep, and the Catholic de Krullevaar is just around the corner. Secondary schools are a ten-minute walk or so. A restaurant is a couple of streets away, and the library and a park are both within a five-minute walk. All this sits within the municipality of Krimpenerwaard, a region of rivers and polders.
At the time of writing the home is listed through several channels, including Van Herk Makelaars.
