Hoefkwartier, Amersfoort
NeighbourhoodThis 184 m² apartment on Toetsenbordpad 131 is a brand-new build (2024) with an A++ energy label, so it's as efficient as it gets. It sits in the Hoefkwartier neighbourhood of Amersfoort, a quiet area with plenty of green space. The asking price of €1,250,000 is on the high side compared to the one recent sale in the neighbourhood (€400,000), but that reflects the new-build status and size. For context, apartments in Amersfoort vary widely in price.
The neighbourhood Hoefkwartier is a small, green area with about 530 residents, mostly young adults (55% aged 25-45) and students (31% aged 15-25). It's a very urban setting with a high address density. Two residents shared their views: one says, "It's a beautiful neighbourhood, but I'm currently paying money for a dilapidated building, which is frankly ridiculous." Another notes, "The neighbourhood will become a big construction site in the coming years. That's a shame but necessary. Still, the location is great, although there have been burglaries in the area." The neighbourhood has a mix of opinions, but the green surroundings are appreciated.
For your morning bread, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and Lidl is a couple of streets away. For schools, Focus College Amersfoort (secondary) is a five-minute walk, and 't Hooghe Landt (secondary) is a couple of streets away. Primary schools like De Windroos are also within walking distance. The train station is just around the corner, making commuting easy. The municipality Amersfoort offers plenty of amenities, though the nearest large supermarket is a ten-minute walk away.
At the time of writing, the home is listed via De Ruiter Makelaarshuis BV and also appears on other channels.

Good location in nature with far too few parking spaces
Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood will become a big construction site in the coming years. That's a shame but necessary. Still, the location is great, although there have been burglaries in the area and it could be a bit safer in my opinion. There should be more police patrols at night and in the evening.

About Toetsenbordpad 131, Amersfoort
The price is significantly above the only recent sale in Hoefkwartier (€400,000), but that home was likely much smaller or different in type. Given the 184 m² size, brand-new construction, and A++ energy label, the price reflects the premium for a modern, spacious apartment in a green setting. There are no other comparable listings in the neighbourhood to benchmark against.
The energy label is A++, the highest possible rating. This means the home is extremely energy-efficient, with excellent insulation and likely a heat pump or similar system. Your energy bills will be very low compared to older homes. All homes in Hoefkwartier built after 2010 have A+ labels, so this is consistent with the area.
The train station is just 300 metres away, so you can walk there in about 3-4 minutes. This makes commuting to Utrecht, Amsterdam, or other cities very convenient. The neighbourhood is well-connected by rail.
One resident mentioned that there have been burglaries and that more police patrols would be welcome. The total number of crimes recorded in the neighbourhood is 146, but without context per capita, it's hard to compare. The area is generally considered green and pleasant, but like any urban area, it has some issues.
Yes, Albert Heijn is 421 metres away (a five-minute walk), Lidl is 489 metres, and Jumbo is 850 metres. So daily groceries are easily within walking distance. For a larger supermarket, the nearest is 2.1 km away, which is a bit further.
Secondary schools Focus College Amersfoort (486 m) and 't Hooghe Landt (548 m) are within walking distance. Primary schools include De Windroos (656 m) and De Wijde Wereld (716 m). So children can walk or cycle to school easily.
A park or public garden is just 400 metres away, so green space is on your doorstep. The neighbourhood itself is described as green by residents, despite being urban. The nearby nature areas offer walking and cycling opportunities.
