Frequently asked questions
About Zangvogelweg 71, Amersfoort
How does the asking price compare to the WOZ value?
The WOZ value is €313,000 as of 1 January 2025. The asking price of €325,000 is 4% above that. This means the asking price is slightly higher than the municipal valuation, which is a common situation. The WOZ value is not the market value, but it gives an indication of how the municipality values the property for tax purposes.
What is the energy label and what does it mean for costs?
The energy label is F, which is the least efficient label. This means you can expect higher energy costs for heating and electricity compared to homes with better labels. The home was built in 1967, so it may have older installations. However, the label does not tell you about the actual condition of the insulation or heating system.
What is the foundation risk for this home?
The foundation risk indication for this address is low, according to area-level data. The soil type is sand, which is generally stable. This is an indication based on public data, not an inspection of the specific property. It gives a general idea of the risk in the area, but a professional survey would be needed for a definitive assessment.
What are the noise levels like in this area?
The noise level from road traffic is 52 dB Lden, which is above the Dutch noise norm. Railway noise is 37 dB Lden, which is below the norm. These are area-level indications based on 2022 and 2023 data. They give an idea of the acoustic environment, but actual noise inside the home depends on the building's insulation and window placement.
What supermarkets are nearby?
There are several supermarkets within a short distance. The Jumbo is just around the corner at about 345 metres, the Aldi is about 466 metres away, and the Hoogvliet is at 532 metres. A Lidl is also within walking distance at 635 metres. This makes daily grocery shopping convenient.

Experiences from Liendert
How residents experience their district
It's a very nice neighbourhood to live in, but there's little to do for young people and also few nice eateries and employment opportunities to bring people together in a good and safe way and offer work and future prospects. In this area we have to deal with a lot of traffic nuisance, think illegal street races/extremely fast driving and people parking antisocially and throwing their rubbish around. It's a shame that this friendly neighbourhood lacks some things to make it a more prosperous area with higher well-being again. So more restaurants, sports clubs, community gardens and fun play and sports equipment could be placed. And for example walking initiatives, a winter market, a King's Day market, a decorated neighbourhood tour for Christmas. Maybe even an extra food court. In terms of traffic, I really hope for more speed bumps and more speed cameras because. In terms of hygiene, they could place more rubbish bins and perhaps clearer places where larger bulky waste is collected once a week to prevent litter.

Ydylische groene authentieke buurt. Gemêleerde mensen dat maakt de buurt bijzonder. Vriendelijk nieuwsgierig maar vooral mooie mensen.
Auto-translated to English by AIthere is a lot of green in my neighbourhood, but there are also many old people
Auto-translated to English by AINice neighbourhood with lots of green. Close to the motorway, hospital, shops and schools.
Auto-translated to English by AIFine, but there could be more playground equipment for the children. Better enforcement for the loitering youth.
Auto-translated to English by AIBeautiful old trees, green neighbourhood in the district, 1930s houses, good atmosphere, friendly, warm-hearted people from different backgrounds. Harmony and everyone is there for each other. Good accessibility by bus, bike or car. Centrally located near the city centre and central station.
Auto-translated to English by AIEverything good. Lovely people, beautiful neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AICosy neighbourhood, always quiet
Auto-translated to English by AII've been living here for three years now and I haven't experienced anything unpleasant or anything. Unfortunately, the neighbourhood is relatively far from shops, but I personally don't find it acceptable to constantly consume, so it's not a problem that shops are far away from my perspective. The neighbourhood is built on a small hill, which is why it's called the Bergkwartier. That's a disadvantage if you only have a bike, because it's quite a tough climb uphill. But 'every disadvantage has its advantage': cycling up the hill is good for your health... The neighbourhood doesn't have a neighbourhood watch. But all houses are well secured against burglary. I've never ended up in a bad situation at night. There is no loitering youth anywhere. I don't often read about burglaries in the neighbourhood, nor other crime. There is no community centre in this part of Amersfoort. There is a small restaurant here, about a hundred metres from my home. But I've never seen my neighbours there. So it's not a neighbourhood fathers' place, although it could have been. The neighbourhood consists of a mix of owner-occupied and (social) rental homes. But the majority are owner-occupied. Their condition is quite good. But people with a smaller budget also live here, and that's good because variety is good for social processes and life itself. The neighbourhood is easily accessible from other places in this city. I often walk in the forest; the forest is five hundred metres from my home, it's beautiful there, I find peace there, so I enjoy going there.
