About Jan Cornelisz. Rijpstraat 8, De Rijp
The asking price of €650,000 is above the neighbourhood average of €585,077 and the median of €489,000. However, this is a detached house with 150 m² of living space, which is larger than the average home in De Rijp. The price per m² (€4,333) is in line with the neighbourhood average of €4,315. Given the property type and size, the price is on the high side but reflects the market.

The home has energy label D. This is a moderate rating, meaning energy costs will be higher than for homes with labels A, B or C. In the neighbourhood, 50% of homes have label D or lower, so this is not unusual for the area. You may want to consider energy-saving measures to improve efficiency.
There are two primary schools within walking distance: Basisschool De Tweemaster (351 m) and De Balein (456 m). Both are within a few minutes' walk, making them very convenient for families with young children. Secondary education is further away, at 10.7 km, so a commute or bus ride is needed for older children.
The nearest train station is 11.7 km away, so the home is not well connected by rail. A car or bus will be necessary for train travel. The village itself is quiet and car-dependent for longer journeys.
