NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Vest sits right in the middle of the historic centre, with the market square and canals just a short stroll away. At 98 m² it's a comfortable size, and the price of €395,000 is notably keen, 30% below the neighbourhood average of €564,538. For context, that's also the median price in the area, so you're getting a good deal for a home of this type. Compare with other apartments in Gouda.
The neighbourhood Raam e.o. is the beating heart of Gouda's old town. It's densely built and very urban, with over 3,400 addresses per km². One resident sums it up: "Ugly but in a top location." They note that the houses are not pretty, everything is expensive, and there's little greenery, but all amenities are right there. King's Day gets overwhelmingly busy, and the streets can be littered. Still, it's a place where you can walk to everything. The neighbourhood has a mix of ages, with many singles and a fair number of families.
For your morning bread, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and Lidl and Coop are a couple of streets away. Two primary schools, St. Aloysius and Casimirschool, are within a five-minute walk, making the school run easy. The municipality Gouda offers all the city amenities you'd expect, from restaurants (one on your doorstep) to a library and park within a ten-minute walk. The train station is a 15-minute walk, so commuting is straightforward.
At the time of writing the home is listed through several channels, including Blauw Makelaars, Funda and Vastgoed Nederland. The agent has provided full details on the property, so what you see is what you get.

The houses are really ugly, everything is expensive. No students. All possible amenities in the neighbourhood. King's Day is always way too busy. Very little greenery, and there are often bits of plastic and stuff lying in the street. There might be a neighbourhood get-together but only 8 people go.

About Vest 87, Gouda
Yes, it's a keen price. The average asking price in the neighbourhood is €564,538, and the median is exactly €395,000, so this home is priced at the median, well below the average. Given that the floor area is 98 m² (42% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 168 m²), the price per m² works out at about €4,030, which is slightly below the neighbourhood average of €4,168 per m².
The home has energy label C. That's a decent score, it means the home is reasonably efficient, though not top-of-the-range. In the neighbourhood, 25% of homes have label C, and another 25% have D or lower, so this is about average for the area. You can expect moderate energy costs, but nothing extreme.
Excellent. Albert Heijn is just 523 metres away, a five-minute walk. Lidl and Coop are also within walking distance (661 and 774 metres respectively). So for groceries, you're well covered. There are also plenty of restaurants, with one just 100 metres from the door.
There are several primary schools within walking distance. The closest is r.k. basisschool St. Aloysius at 300 metres, followed by Casimirschool at 510 metres. Both are well-regarded. For secondary education, the nearest school is 1.2 km away, about a 15-minute walk.
Gouda railway station is 1.5 km from the apartment, which is about a 15-20 minute walk. That's convenient for commuting to Utrecht, Rotterdam or The Hague.
The listing does not mention parking, but given the central location in a historic city centre, parking is likely limited and may involve paid street parking or a permit. You would need to check with the municipality for specific arrangements.
