Ridderstraat 2

The asking price is 91% above the neighbourhood average of €625,318, but this home is also 79% larger than the typical home in Schilderskwartier (234 m² vs 131 m²). Detached houses are rare in Woerden, so the premium reflects both the size and the property type. Compared to other homes currently for sale in the area, it's on the high side, but the spacious plot and living area justify the price.

The home has energy label C. That means it's reasonably efficient but not top-of-the-line. You can expect moderate energy costs, though improvements like better insulation or solar panels could bring it up to a higher rating. In the neighbourhood, about 37% of homes have label A or A+, so this is slightly below the local average.

Schilderskwartier is popular with families, about 40% of households have children. Residents describe it as "a nice neighbourhood to grow up in" with everything close by. There are several primary schools within walking distance, and the park is just a couple of streets away. The only downside mentioned is the lack of a bus stop, but the train station is a ten-minute walk.

Albert Heijn and Jumbo are both about 700 metres away, so you can walk there in under ten minutes. Aldi and Lidl are a bit further, around a kilometre. For schools, the Wilhelminaschool (primary) is 516 metres away, and Kalsbeek College (secondary) is 492 metres. There's also a special primary school, SBO De Keerkring, at 348 metres.

Woerden train station is 2.2 km from the home, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short bike ride. From there, you can reach Utrecht in about 15 minutes and Amsterdam in about 30 minutes. The neighbourhood doesn't have a bus stop, so cycling or driving is the main option for local transport.

The listing doesn't specify a garden, but the plot is 574 m², which is generous for a detached home. The neighbourhood has a park just 300 metres away, so green space is close by.
