Frequently asked questions
About Puttershoekstraat 71, Zoetermeer
Was €475,000 a fair price for this apartment?
The asking price of €475,000 was 31% below the neighbourhood average of €687,386, but the apartment was also smaller than average (83 m² vs 146 m²). The price per square metre worked out to about €5,723, which was above the neighbourhood average of €4,682 per m². So while the total price was low, you're paying a premium for the new build and energy efficiency.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is A+++, the highest possible rating. This meant the home was extremely energy-efficient, with very low heating and electricity costs. It's a new-build apartment from 2025, so it meets the latest insulation and ventilation standards.

What is the neighbourhood like?
Oosterheem-Noord-Oost is a green, family-friendly area with a score of 7.94 out of 10 from residents. It's quiet, safe, and has excellent walking and cycling routes through the Bentwoud. The community in the apartment complex itself could be more active, but the surroundings are highly appreciated.
Are there good schools nearby?
