Peperstraat 8A
Raam en omgeving, Gouda
A grand old apartment on Peperstraat
This spacious apartment on Peperstraat in Gouda sits in the heart of the historic Binnenstad, where the streets hum with daily life. The listing does not state an energy label, so the rest of this page focuses on the home's location and the neighbourhood rather than its energy performance. At €1,995 per month, the rent sits 23% above the neighbourhood average of €1,616, which reflects the generous 138 m² floor area, 57% larger than the typical rental in the area. For context, apartments in Gouda average €1,616 per month, so this one is on the high side, but you are paying for size and a central address.
Raam e.o.
The Raam e.o. neighbourhood is a compact, lively part of Gouda's old town, with a mix of historic buildings and modern conveniences. One resident describes it as "Ugly but in a top location," adding that "all possible amenities are in the neighbourhood" and that King's Day is "always way too busy." The same review notes "very little greenery, and there are often bits of plastic and stuff lying in the street," and mentions a neighbourhood get-together that only draws eight people. Based on this single review, the picture is mixed: convenience and centrality come with a lack of green space and a busy feel on festive days. The area is home to many single-person households, and the average household size is small, reflecting the urban, central character of the Raam e.o. neighbourhood itself.
Life on the street
For daily errands, you are well placed. The Albert Heijn is just around the corner, with a Coop and a Lidl, all within a short stroll. For families, the St. Aloysius primary school is a couple of streets away, and the Casimirschool is, so the school run is a quick walk. The Prinses Julianaschool is a ten-minute walk. The train station is 1.6 km away, a manageable distance for commuters. This is a neighbourhood where the essentials are close at hand, and the bustle of the old town is part of the daily rhythm, all within the municipality of Gouda's historic core.

Frequently asked questions
About Peperstraat 8A, Gouda
Why is there no energy label in this listing?
Rotsvast Gouda has published only the street and price on Funda.
Is €1,995 a fair rent for this apartment?
The rent is 23% above the neighbourhood average of €1,616, but the floor area of 138 m² is 57% larger than the average rental of 88 m² in Raam e.o. So you are paying a premium for significantly more space. The price per square metre works out to about €14.46, which is below the neighbourhood average of €15.65 per m², suggesting the size is the main driver of the total rent.
What is the neighbourhood like to live in?
Raam e.o. is a central, busy part of Gouda's old town. One resident calls it "Ugly but in a top location," praising the amenities but noting the lack of greenery and occasional litter.
