The asking price of €439,000 is in line with the market for apartments in Krimpenerwaard. The 103 m² floor area and energy label B are solid features, and the location on the village square with a supermarket on your doorstep adds convenience. Without neighbourhood sales data, it's hard to say more, but the price appears realistic for what's on offer.
The energy label is B, which means the home is reasonably energy-efficient. You can expect moderate heating and electricity costs compared to older homes with lower labels.
The Coop is just 78 metres away, literally on your doorstep. Albert Heijn is 372 metres away, a five-minute walk. For a larger selection, Aldi is about 1.1 km and Hoogvliet 1.5 km. Daily shopping couldn't be more convenient.

How residents experience their district
I mainly like the neighbourhood because I grew up here and still live here. That's why I know everything, and it's not a big neighbourhood either, which I also like. The people are okay, not a stingy neighbourhood or anything. Just few facilities for young people, like nice shops. I do think it's a shame that there is apparently one man who buys up a lot and then makes boring things out of it, like boring clothing stores for older people. As a result, the neighbourhood really becomes more for the elderly. Still, I am happy to live here because it is small and, for me, quite manageable, and it has the basics, and that's the most important thing. Accessibility by car to this neighbourhood is fine, but by public transport it's really poorly arranged. Sometimes you have to wait so long, for example at Capelse brug, for a bus here. So the public transport connection here could really be better.

How residents experience their municipality
Have lived there for 42 years with full satisfaction! Only recently nothing has been done about the front and back gardens of various houses!
Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood was always good! But a lot of people are moving away, so we'll have to wait and see what the future brings.
Auto-translated to English by AIPeople know each other and help each other, without constantly dropping by or violating each other's privacy. The houses are all about 100 years old or even older and belong to the historic village centre. The village has a lively, extensive shopping street where regular fairs and other events are organised. Here there are no large chain stores but mostly specialist quality shops that have often been run by the same family for generations. It is pleasant to live in Bergambacht

Auto-translated to English by AILovely to live here. Everything you need is nearby, the houses and surroundings are beautiful. The only downside is that it's almost impossible to find a home.
Auto-translated to English by AIStolwijk is nice to live in. However, there is very little to no opportunity to move on to an affordable 55+ home. Apartments are very scarce and terribly expensive, over €400,000, which is not feasible for us.
