NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Promenade sits right in the middle of Stadscentrum, Zoetermeer's lively core. With 72 m² and a C energy label, it's a practical home for someone who wants to be where things happen. The asking price of €300,000 is 18% below the neighbourhood average of €365,500, making it a keen option compared to other apartments in Zoetermeer.
Stadscentrum is a dense urban neighbourhood with a very high address density. It's home to many singles and older residents, and the streets are always active. One resident sums it up: "It's quite nice to live here, but the aggressive vagrants and smoking youths who rummage through bins are not for me. Otherwise, everything is easily accessible by car, bike, on foot, or with the RandstadRail." That's the only review, so it's a single perspective. The neighbourhood Stadscentrum has a high number of reported crimes, which matches the resident's mention of nuisance.
For groceries, Hoogvliet is just around the corner, and AH XL is a couple of streets away. The nearest primary school, Prinses Margrietschool, is a five-minute walk, and there are several others within easy reach. The municipality Zoetermeer has plenty of restaurants and a library nearby, so you won't have to go far for a meal out or a quiet read.
At the time of writing, the home is listed via Van 't Hof Makelaardij and also appears on Funda, so it's available through several channels.

About Promenade 138, Zoetermeer
The asking price of €300,000 is 18% below the average asking price in Stadscentrum (€365,500) and also below the median of €387,000. Given the 72 m² floor area, that works out to about €4,167 per m², which is lower than the neighbourhood average of €4,549 per m². So it's priced keenly compared to other homes currently for sale in the area.
Stadscentrum is a very urban area with a high density of addresses. It has many one-person households and a mix of ages, with a notable share of residents aged 65 and over. The only resident review mentions that while it's convenient, there can be nuisance from aggressive vagrants and smoking youths. Crime figures are relatively high, so it's a lively, central spot rather than a quiet retreat.
The nearest train station is 2.5 km away, which is about a 30-minute walk or a short bike ride. The area is well connected by RandstadRail, as noted by a resident, so public transport is accessible even if the main station isn't on your doorstep.
For daily shopping, Hoogvliet is just 288 m away and AH XL is 338 m, both within a few minutes' walk. Several primary schools are close, including Prinses Margrietschool (517 m) and IKC Klimboom (611 m). There's also a secondary school, MOTION Beweeg College, at 694 m.
The apartment has energy label C, which is average for an older building. It means the home is reasonably efficient but not as economical as modern A or B labels. You can expect moderate energy costs, though exact amounts depend on usage.
Currently, there are 6 apartments for sale in Stadscentrum, with an average price of €365,500 and an average size of 82 m². This apartment is smaller and cheaper than the average, so it stands out as a more affordable option in the neighbourhood.
