Richterslaan 31

The asking price of €295,000 is in line with the market for a 70 m² apartment in this part of Nieuwegein. The home has energy label C, which is average for its age. Without comparable sales data for the neighbourhood, it is hard to say whether it is keen or on the high side, but the price per square metre is typical for the area.

Wijkersloot-Oost is a green, well-maintained neighbourhood with a nice park and good amenities. Public transport is excellent. However, one resident reports that people hardly look out for each other and there is nuisance from young people and drug dealing. The neighbourhood has a high turnover of residents, and most people in the block of flats do greet each other.

The nearest train station is 7.3 km away, so it is not within walking distance. You would need a bus, bike or car to reach it. Public transport within the neighbourhood is described as excellent, so bus connections to the station are likely good.

Boon's Markt is just 176 m away, so on your doorstep. Nettorama is 360 m, a couple of streets away. Jumbo, Dirk and PLUS are all within 600 m, so a five-minute walk. That gives you plenty of choice for daily groceries.

There are two primary schools within a short walk: Obs De Schakel (408 m) and Beatrixschool, locatie Wijkersloot (467 m). For secondary education, Cals College Nieuwegein is 830 m away, about a ten-minute walk. There is also Oosterlicht College at 917 m.

The apartment has energy label C, which is average for a home built in 1965. It is not the most efficient, but also not the worst. You can expect moderate energy costs, though exact amounts depend on usage and insulation improvements.
