Frequently asked questions
About Stoofsteeg 4C, Gouda
Is €425,000 a fair price for this apartment?
The asking price of €425,000 matches the median price in the neighbourhood, where the average price per m² is €4,889. Given that this apartment is 80 m² (29% smaller than the neighbourhood average), the price per m² works out at about €5,313, which is slightly above the neighbourhood average. So it's on the high side for its size, but in line with the local market.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is F, which is poor. In the neighbourhood, only 26.3% of homes have a label D or lower, so this apartment is less efficient than most. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with a better label. The majority of homes in the area have labels A or B.
How safe is the Nieuwe Markt e.o. neighbourhood?
The neighbourhood has a total of 376 reported crimes, but the resident review notes: "During the day it's nice in the city... In the evening, I find the neighbourhood a bit scary to walk through, sometimes some odd characters and there are some deals I've seen, but I don't get involved, I just live safely so far!" So it's lively but with some caution advised after dark.
What is the neighbourhood like in terms of demographics?
The area has 1,490 residents, with a high proportion of single-person households (625 out of 950 households). The average household size is 1.5. Most residents are between 25 and 45 years old, and there are relatively few children. It's a young, urban crowd.
How far is the train station?
The train station is 1.2 km away, which is about a ten-minute walk. That makes it convenient for commuting to other cities.
Are there supermarkets nearby?
Yes, Albert Heijn is just 134 metres away, Coop at 283 metres, and SPAR at 584 metres. So daily groceries are within easy walking distance.
What schools are in the area?
There are several primary schools nearby: Casimirschool at 163 metres, St. Aloysius at 310 metres, and Prinses Julianaschool at 625 metres. For secondary education, the nearest is about 1.5 km away.
How much green space is there?
The nearest park or public garden is 0.6 km away. The resident review mentions that "green in the city is almost nowhere to be seen, maybe more maintenance for plants or trees?" So it's not a green neighbourhood.
