Oostendam, Hendrik-Ido-Ambacht
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Oude Raadhuisplein sits right in the heart of Hendrik-Ido-Ambacht, where the old town hall square gives the street a village feel. At 112 m² it's a generous size for an apartment, and the 1953 build means solid construction with a layout that feels spacious. The asking price of €575,000 is on the high side compared to other apartments in Hendrik-Ido-Ambacht, but the central location and square footage explain why.

About Oude Raadhuisplein 20, Hendrik-Ido-Ambacht
At 112 m² and in a central location, the price is on the high side compared to other apartments in Hendrik-Ido-Ambacht. The energy label D means heating costs will be higher than in a modern home, but the generous floor area and the square's appeal justify the premium for many buyers.
Oostendam is a quiet, family-oriented neighbourhood with a mix of ages. It's not a bustling city centre, but it has a strong community feel. The crime rate is low, and the streets are safe for children. The nearby Lidl and Jumbo cover daily shopping, and the town centre is a short walk away.
The nearest train station is 4.8 km away, so it's not within walking distance. You would need a bike or car to reach it. The station connects to the wider Randstad network, but for daily commuting, a car or bus may be more practical.
There are several primary schools within walking distance. Christelijk IKC De Tweestroom is about 670 m away, SOL Villa Ambacht is 800 m, and Stadhouder Willem III-school is just under a kilometre. For secondary education, the nearest school is 3.6 km away, so a bike or bus is needed.
The energy label is D, which is average for a home from 1953. It means the insulation and heating system are not up to modern standards, so you can expect higher energy bills than in a label A or B home. It's worth budgeting for potential improvements.
The listing does not mention a garden, balcony, or terrace. The apartment is on the square, so outdoor space is likely limited to what's inside the home.
