About Schrijverspark 119-01, Veenendaal
The asking price of €295,000 is about 29% below the average asking price in Schrijverswijk (€412,917) and also below the median of €329,500. However, the apartment is smaller than average (62 m² vs 96 m²), so the price per m² works out at around €4,758, which is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €4,305 per m². So it's priced keenly overall, but the smaller size means you're paying a bit more per square metre.
The energy label is B, which is good, it means the home is reasonably energy-efficient. You can expect lower heating costs compared to older homes with labels D or lower. In the neighbourhood, 50% of homes have label A+ and 16.7% have label A, so this B label is slightly below the local average but still efficient.
The train station is 1.4 km away, which is about a ten-minute walk. That makes it convenient for commuting to Utrecht or Arnhem.
There are several primary schools within walking distance: De Plantage (382 m), Al Amana (429 m), and Basisschool Dr C Steenblok (485 m). For secondary education, the nearest school is 1.6 km away.
Hoogvliet is just 275 m away, Albert Heijn is 315 m, and Ekoplaza is 388 m. So daily shopping is very convenient on foot.
The neighbourhood recorded 119 total crimes in the latest data. Without a per-capita figure it's hard to compare, but it's a central urban area so some level of activity is normal.
The listing states the floor area is 62 m², but does not specify the number of rooms or layout. Based on the size, it likely has two bedrooms, but you would need to check the floor plan with the agent.
