The listing does not include details on the layout, number of rooms, or any outdoor space. What is known is that the home was built in 1920 and carries an energy label E, which is on the lower end of the scale, so heating costs are likely to be a consideration. The living area is 107 m² according to the BAG registration, on a plot of 129 m². The agent has not provided additional specifications, so the exact configuration of the rooms remains unstated.

Residents across the municipality of Den Helder give their living environment an average score of 7.38 out of 10, based on 28 reviews. One resident says: "Everything is within walking distance, the bus stop is around the corner, a central location that still offers a peaceful environment for me and my family." Another simply calls it "Top". The neighbourhood itself has 8 homes currently for sale, with prices ranging from €175,000 to €299,500, so this property sits above that range.

The foundation risk indication is low, on sandy soil, though the home was built before 1970, which is a factor in the area.

About Joubertstraat 44, Den Helder
The asking price of €339,000 is about 39% above the neighbourhood average asking price of €243,188. The average price per m² in the neighbourhood is €2,647, while this home is listed at €3,168 per m² based on the BAG registration. Currently, eight homes are for sale in the neighbourhood, with prices ranging from €175,000 to €299,500, so this property is at the upper end of that range.
The home has an energy label E, which is on the lower end of the scale. This means the home is less efficient, so expect higher heating costs compared with homes with better labels. The listing does not mention any insulation features, so the exact energy performance is not detailed. The label is a fact about the home, not a judgement on its condition.
The WOZ value is the municipal valuation, which is separate from the asking price, but it is not available here. Without it, there is no comparison to make between the asking price and the official valuation. The listing simply does not include this information.

Good experience so far
Auto-translated to English by AIGreat
Auto-translated to English by AIEverything is within walking distance, the bus stop is around the corner, a central location that still offers a peaceful environment for me and my family.
Auto-translated to English by AINice neighbourhood to live in, close to the centre, the dike and the ferry to Texel. In the past, at the end of the street there was the very cosy nightlife area, which has moved to another location. Now it's much less cosy and there are far fewer pubs than before. In the part where I live, neighbours take in packages for each other. We also have nice neighbours with whom we get along well. When we go on holiday or away for the weekend, they look after our 3 cats, and vice versa. We help each other, and I think that's very important for a pleasant living environment.
Auto-translated to English by AIWe prefer not to go out when it's dark. Double locks on all doors, including the shed and gate. We both come from a different province in the Netherlands.
Auto-translated to English by AII've only lived in this neighbourhood for a few months, and it's been nothing but pleasant. Little nuisance from neighbours. Some fireworks going off here and there, but where doesn't that happen.
Auto-translated to English by AIAfter a certain time in the evening, I no longer go outside alone. We even have double locks on the gate, shed and aviary. Hygiene: people throw paper etc. into the bushes, empty bottles and cans. Just an ASO neighbourhood. What could be better: fewer coloured people in the neighbourhood, also benefit claimants. Make it a neighbourhood where almost everyone is equal. And where everyone feels safe again to, for example, walk their dog around 10 p.m.
Auto-translated to English by AIMore empty properties, the neighbourhood is deteriorating due to many more foreigners in the area. I no longer go out on the street after 10pm. Double locks everywhere. More street lighting and more social housing.
