About Parallelweg 132C, Vlaardingen
The asking price of €282,000 is 18% below the average asking price in the neighbourhood (€342,987) and also below the median of €289,500. Given that the floor area is 68 m², 35% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 104 m², the price per m² works out at about €4,147, which is higher than the neighbourhood average of €3,571 per m². So while the total price is low, you are paying a premium per square metre.
The energy label is C, which is average for a home of this age. It means the property has reasonable insulation and heating efficiency, but you can expect moderate energy bills. In the neighbourhood, 24.3% of homes have label C, while 43.2% have a lower rating (D or below), so this home is slightly better than many older properties in the area.
The nearest train station is 6.3 km away, so it is not within walking distance. You would need a bus, bike or car to reach it. The neighbourhood is well connected by other means, but for train travel, plan a short journey to the station.
There are several primary schools within walking distance. KC Het Visnet is 341 m away (a five-minute walk), IKC Van Kampen is 614 m away, and IKC Erasmus is 954 m away. For secondary education, the nearest school is 2 km away, so older children may need to cycle or take public transport.
The nearest supermarket is Hoogvliet at 447 m, just around the corner. Albert Heijn is 818 m away (a ten-minute walk), and Lidl is 957 m away. For daily shopping, you have several options within easy reach.
The neighbourhood recorded 325 total crimes in the latest data, which is relatively high for an area of this size. However, the area is urban and densely populated, so crime figures should be considered in that context. It is always a good idea to visit the street at different times to get a feel for the area.
The address density is 3,504 per km², which classifies the area as very strongly urban (level 1). This means you are in a busy, built-up environment with plenty of amenities nearby, but also more noise and activity than a quieter suburb.
