Boshuysenstraat 12
Hoornes-Oost, Katwijk
A home with a view over the Rhine
Boshuysenstraat 12 sits in Hoornes-Oost, a neighbourhood in Katwijk where residents describe a wonderfully diverse mix of people and a safe, green setting. The end-of-terrace house was built in 1964 and carries an energy label E, which is the least efficient label, so expect higher energy costs. With a living area of 120 square metres according to the BAG registration, the asking price of €535,000 works out at €4,458 per square metre. That puts this home on the high side compared with the average of €4,280 per square metre for end-of-terrace houses in Katwijk.
The house itself
The listing gives no details on the layout, number of bedrooms, bathrooms, or any outdoor space, so the picture of the interior is incomplete. What is known is the year of construction, 1964, and the energy label E. The plot measures 189 square metres according to the BAG registration. Beyond that, the agent has not shared further information about the property's features.
