About Schoolstraat 8, Alphen
The price of €395,000 is in line with the market for detached homes in West Maas en Waal. The house has 128 m² of living space on a 218 m² plot, built in 1975 with energy label C. Without comparable sales data for the immediate neighbourhood, the price appears reasonable for the size and location.
The energy label is C, which means the home has reasonable energy efficiency. You can expect moderate heating costs, but it's not as efficient as newer builds. The label is based on the building's insulation, glazing, and heating system as assessed at the time of the certificate.
The nearest train station is 11.9 km away, so this is not a location for daily commuting by rail. You would need a car or bus for train connections.
The closest primary school, BS De Kleine Weide, is about 2 km away, a short drive or bike ride. Other primary schools within 5 km include Basisschool Sint Jozef and RKBS De Meander. For secondary education, the nearest school is 8.9 km away, so older children will need transport.
Kern Alphen recorded only 10 total crimes in the latest data, which is very low. Residents describe it as a peaceful village where people know each other. It's a quiet, safe environment for families.
The listing does not mention a garden, but the plot size of 218 m² suggests there is outdoor space around the house.
