So far, a lot of packages are being stolen from the porch, and bikes and motorbikes from the garage. They are working on it, so that's good, but coincidentally when the Poles come to paint, something gets stolen again, keep that in mind.

About Stadhouderslaan 718, Zoeterwoude
Yes, it's a fair price. The average rent in Meerburg is €1,336, and the median is €1,280. This apartment is slightly below both, and for a brand-new build with an A+++ energy label, it represents good value. The price per m² (€21.08) is a bit above the neighbourhood average of €18.98, but that's typical for new construction.
The energy label is A+++, the highest possible. This means the apartment is extremely energy-efficient, with excellent insulation and likely a heat pump or similar modern system. Your heating and electricity bills will be very low compared to older homes.
