About Ten Harmsenstraat 33, Alphen Aan Den Rijn
The asking price of €465,000 is in line with the market for corner houses in Alphen aan den Rijn. With a 92 m² floor area and a 242 m² plot, you're getting a decent-sized home in a sought-after neighbourhood. The energy label E means higher energy costs, so factor that into your budget.
Nieuwe Sloot is a very urban neighbourhood with a high density of addresses. It's popular with families and couples, and most homes are owner-occupied. The area has a low crime rate and good access to schools, shops, and parks. The train station is 2.9 km away, so a bike or car is handy for commuting.
The home has an energy label E, which means it's not very efficient. You can expect higher heating and electricity bills compared to a modern home. The 1961 construction suggests single glazing and poor insulation, so improvements like double glazing and cavity wall insulation could save money in the long run.
There are several schools within walking distance. VSO Prisma (special secondary education) is 205 m away, Groene Hart Topmavo (secondary) is 449 m, and Protestant Christian primary school Groen van Prinsterer is 514 m. For younger children, a daycare is just 400 m away.
The nearest train station is 2.9 km from the home, which is about a 10-minute bike ride or a 35-minute walk. It's not on your doorstep, but the bus network may also be an option. The station connects to Leiden, Utrecht, and The Hague.
For daily groceries, SPAR express is just 247 m away, and Albert Heijn is 735 m. There's also a Hoogvliet and Aldi about 1 km away. Restaurants are 500 m from the home, so eating out is easy.
