About Toussaintstraat 17, Alphen Aan Den Rijn
The asking price of €475,000 is 16% above the WOZ value of €409,000, which was set on 2025-01-01. This means the asking price is higher than the municipal valuation, but the WOZ value is not the same as the market value. The WOZ value has increased by 56% over the past five years, from €263,000 in 2020 to €409,000 in 2025.
According to the agent, the house has 3 rooms, 2 bedrooms, and 1 bathroom, spread over 2 floors. The living area is listed as 96 m² by the agent, while the BAG registration records 105 m². The plot is 156 m². There is a front and back garden, and a French balcony. The home is fully owned and has insulation including roof insulation, double glazing, wall insulation, and floor insulation, plus a central heating boiler.
The energy label is A, which is an efficient label. This means the home is relatively energy-efficient, which can help keep energy costs lower. The agent also mentions that the home has roof insulation, double glazing, wall insulation, and floor insulation, which contribute to its efficiency.

The address has a road traffic noise level of 54 dB Lden, which is above the Dutch noise norm. Railway noise is 20 dB Lden and aircraft noise is 41 dB Lden, both below the norm. These are area-level indications from public data, not measurements taken at the property itself. If noise is a concern, you may want to visit the location at different times to assess the situation.
The foundation risk indication is elevated, according to area-level data. The home was built in 1931 on clay soil, which may mean it has wooden piles or a shallow foundation. In this postcode area, 89% of buildings were constructed before 1970, and 2% of properties have an elevated risk of pile rot. The groundwater level is expected to drop by 2050, which could increase risks for wooden foundations. This is an indication, not an inspection of this specific property.

How residents experience their municipality
De Bomenbuurt is located near the beautiful Bos Park with tennis courts and a nice petting zoo. There are many fun things in the neighbourhood, such as Avifauna, Winkelplein Baronie, a small harbour, and even DIY stores. De Bomenbuurt is very centrally located in Alphen aan den Rijn. So everything is quite close or within 10 minutes by bike. Nice area with many schools and shops and of course trees! There is a special neighbourhood, we call it the 'Molukker wijk', where mainly Moluccan people or Indo people live. A very pleasant and warm community.

Auto-translated to English by AIFriendly people, plenty of supermarkets in the area, few shops or nightlife options, for that you have to go to Alphen or big cities like Leiden or The Hague, and public transport regularly has problems.
Auto-translated to English by AII find the experience of the neighbourhood pleasant. I love multiculturalism and that's what it is here. You can find all sorts of things here. We have Islamic butchers and people mix well here in the neighbourhood. We've just had the renovation of shopping centre De Ridderhof and it looks tidy again. Nearby we also have a huge recreational area with a massive ditch, where you can rip, waterski, or take a forest walk. All in all, a nice neighbourhood. Nothing has ever happened to us here or have I felt unsafe, no, that's not an issue. Education is anyway poor if you have a child with multiple diagnoses who never gets help..
Auto-translated to English by AIFine neighbourhood with a nice park next to it. The apartments could do with renewal. And there are crimes and nuisance here every day. Accessibility is fine because there is a station 5 minutes from me. In terms of shops and facilities, there aren't many, there are 3 shops here. The houses are old.
Auto-translated to English by AISince I've lived here, about 13 years, the residents have become a bit less civilised. But it's safe, little police or anything in the streets, higher average age.
Auto-translated to English by AINeighbourhood with all ages, (I have said this about the community) many are in my opinion on their own, resulting in little interaction and cosiness in the neighbourhood. I think that if more activities were offered, there could be more interaction. For younger children there are several nice playgrounds, but for older ones there is actually nothing at all. Plenty of amenities, from train, school, supermarket, snack bar, hairdresser, dentist, sports hall all top in the neighbourhood. In the past, I felt there were more burglaries and car fires than now, which makes me feel that the neighbourhood has become safer.
Auto-translated to English by AIA neighbourhood to live well in.
