A cosy neighbourhood with lots of greenery. Unfortunately, many homes have mould and there are many loitering youths in the area. This affects safety.

About Jaspersstraat 35, Zaandam
The asking price of €400,000 is above the neighbourhood average of €355,000 and the median of €357,500. However, corner houses are a specific type, and the average price per m² in the area is €3,863, which for 88 m² would come to about €340,000. The home has a garden and is in a green part of the neighbourhood, which may justify the premium. It's worth comparing with other corner houses in Zaanstad.
One resident review mentions "many loitering youths" affecting safety, and the total number of crimes in the neighbourhood is 150. However, another long-term resident feels safe and doesn't want to leave. The area has a mix of opinions, so it's best to visit at different times to get a feel for it.
The nearest train station is 3.4 km away, which is about a 10-minute drive or a 40-minute walk. Bicycle is a good option, taking around 15 minutes.
There are several schools within walking distance. RK basisschool Paus Joannes is about 400 m away, and VMBO Pascal Zuid is around 500 m. Christelijke Basisschool Tamarinde and Islamitische Basisschool De Horizon are also close, all within a 10-minute walk.
Energy label D means the home is not very energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating and electricity bills compared to a home with label A or B. The neighbourhood has 50% of homes with label C and 50% with D or lower, so this is typical for the area. Exact costs depend on usage and energy prices.
The exact size and layout of the garden are not specified, but it's a corner house so likely has outdoor space on two sides.
