Verhoevenstraat en omgeving, Amersfoort
NeighbourhoodThis 1919 corner house on Kapelweg sits in a leafy part of Amersfoort, where the streets are lined with pre-war homes and tall trees. With 98 m² of living space and a 340 m² plot, it offers a generous garden, a rare find in this urban setting. The energy label is E, so heating costs will be something to factor in. At €575,000, the price is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average of €625,000 for sold homes, but the large plot and corner position add value. For context, end-of-terrace houses in Amersfoort typically command a premium.
The neighbourhood Verhoevenstraat e.o. is a quiet residential area with a mix of families and older residents. The streets are calm, and the neighbourhood has a village-like feel despite being close to the city centre. There are no resident reviews available for this area, but the CBS data shows a balanced population: many households with children, and a good number of single-person households too. The area is fairly urban (density 2166 addresses per km²), yet green spaces are within easy reach.
Your daily routine here is straightforward: a five-minute walk gets you to Jumbo and Albert Heijn for groceries, and the nearest primary school, P.C. basisschool De Bolster, is just around the corner. For secondary education, the School op de Berg is a couple of streets away. The municipality Amersfoort offers plenty of parks and restaurants within walking distance, and the train station is a ten-minute walk, making commuting easy.

About Kapelweg 114, Amersfoort
The asking price of €575,000 is below the average sale price of €625,000 for homes sold recently in the neighbourhood. However, this home has an energy label E, which means higher energy costs, and the 98 m² floor area is modest for a corner house. The large 340 m² plot is a definite plus. Given that only 7 homes sold in the area recently, the market is not very active, so there may be room for negotiation.
