About Chopinlaan 8, Apeldoorn
The asking price of €585,000 is 59% above the neighbourhood average of €366,882. However, this house is larger (124 m² vs 98 m² average) and is a detached property, which commands a premium. In the past year, 35 homes sold in the neighbourhood at an average of €376,914, but those were mostly smaller or different types. Given the size and rarity, the price is on the high side but reflects the specific features of this home.
Componistenkwartier is a social, established neighbourhood with a strong community feel. Residents rate it 8.7 out of 10, praising the helpfulness and annual neighbourhood parties. Three-quarters of homes are single-family, and about half are owner-occupied. The population is mixed, with many families and older residents. It is a quiet, leafy area with good amenities within walking distance.
The nearest supermarket is Jumbo at 432 m, just around the corner. Lidl is 988 m away, a ten-minute walk. For more variety, Dekamarkt is 1.4 km and Albert Heijn is 1.5 km. Daily groceries are easily covered on foot or by bike.
Primary schools within walking distance include PC Daltonschool Willem van Oranje (697 m) and PCBO Het Kompas (944 m). For secondary education, Praktijkschool Apeldoorn is 734 m away. Several other primary and secondary schools are within 1,2 km, making the area suitable for families with school-age children.
The nearest train station is 3.8 km away, which is about a 10-minute bike ride or a short bus trip. For daily commuting by train, the station is accessible but not within walking distance.
Energy label G is the lowest rating, indicating poor energy efficiency. This 1930s house likely has single glazing and limited insulation. Heating costs will be higher than for a modern home. However, the house has potential for improvements such as insulation, double glazing, or a new heating system, which could significantly reduce energy bills.
Given the detached nature and plot size, there is likely a private outdoor space, but you would need to view the property to confirm.
With 124 m² of living space and a detached layout, it is reasonable to expect multiple bedrooms, but the exact configuration is not provided. You would need to check the floor plan or visit the property.
