About Chopinstraat 7, Akersloot
The asking price of €525,000 is slightly above the average sale price in Akersloot West (€508,091) and the median (€489,000). However, corner houses often command a premium, and the home has a generous plot of 283 m². Recently sold homes in the area went for an average of €615,204, so the price is in line with what buyers have been paying.
The home has energy label C. That means it is reasonably efficient but not top-of-the-line. You can expect moderate energy bills, and the home is likely to have some insulation and double glazing, though not to the highest modern standards. In the neighbourhood, about 50% of homes have label A or better, so label C is fairly typical for a house built in 1967.
The nearest train station is 6.7 km away. That is a drive of about 10 minutes or a longer bike ride. The station connects to Alkmaar and Amsterdam, but you would need to check the exact line. For daily commuting, a car or bicycle is more practical than walking.
Two primary schools are within walking distance: Kindcentrum Rembrandt (183 m) and Kindcentrum De Brug (542 m). Both are within a few minutes' walk. For secondary education, the nearest school is 6.7 km away, so older children would need to travel further.
Akersloot West has a high proportion of families with children (540 households) and many single-family homes (86% of the housing stock). The area is quiet and not densely built, with a park just 400 m away. It is a safe neighbourhood with only 88 recorded crimes in the area.
The plot is 283 m², which is generous for a corner house. The listing does not specify the garden layout, but a plot of this size typically includes a private outdoor space. You would need to view the property to see the exact size and orientation.
