About Zilverstraat 1, Enkhuizen
The asking price of €385,000 is in line with what you would expect for a detached house of this size and age in Enkhuizen. The 107 m² floor area and 1930s construction mean you get solid brickwork and high ceilings, but the D energy label suggests higher heating costs. Without comparable sales data for the immediate neighbourhood, it is hard to say if it is a bargain, but it is not overpriced for the market.
Energy label D means the home is moderately efficient. You can expect reasonable insulation and double glazing in some parts, but heating bills will be higher than in a modern home. The 1930s build often means solid walls, so adding insulation later is possible but not cheap. It is a typical label for a house of this age.
The train station is 0.7 km away, which is about a five-minute walk. That makes it easy to reach other towns without a car.
There are several primary schools within walking distance. The nearest is Rooms Katholieke Basisschool Pancratius at 480 m, followed by Openbare Basisschool De Tweemaster at 842 m. For secondary education, the closest school is 2.5 km away, so older children would need to cycle or take the bus.
The neighbourhood recorded 157 total crimes in the latest data, which is moderate for a town centre. It is a mixed area with a lot of foot traffic, so it feels lively rather than unsafe. As with any urban area, it pays to be aware of your surroundings.
The plot is 107 m², which is the same size as the floor area. That suggests a compact garden, but the listing does not specify whether it is a front or back garden, or if there is a terrace. You would need to view the property to see the outdoor space.
