Europaplein, Alphen aan den Rijn
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Zuidland in Alphen aan den Rijn feels light and efficient, with an A energy label and a 2007 build. At 70 m² it's compact but well laid out, and the asking price of €390,000 is keen compared to the neighbourhood average, 52% below the average asking price of €816,250. That's partly because it's smaller than the typical home here, but it still offers a great entry point into the market. For context, the supply of apartments in Alphen aan den Rijn is limited, so this is a rare opportunity.
Europaplein is a calm residential area with lots of green space, a park is just around the corner. The one resident review sums it up: "Decent neighbourhood with lots of green and shops nearby."

The neighbourhood has a mix of ages, with many single-person households and a fair share of older residents. It's a place where you can enjoy peace and quiet while still having essentials close by. For more on the area, see the Europaplein neighbourhood.
Your morning coffee is a two-minute walk away at the park, and the Aldi is on your doorstep for groceries. For a bigger shop, Hoogvliet is just around the corner, and Ekoplaza is a five-minute walk.
