Stadskern, Zutphen
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Houtmarkt sits in the oldest part of Zutphen, where the streets are narrow and the buildings full of character. Built in 1558, it is a piece of living history with an energy label G, which means heating costs will be significant. At 194 m², the floor area is 25% larger than the neighbourhood average, a generous footprint for a city-centre home. Priced at €500,000, it is slightly below the average sold price in the area, making it a keen option compared to other apartments in Zutphen.

Very good · 2 residents
My experience with the neighbourhood is very positive. Although the streets are somewhat narrow and the houses here and there a bit dated, this is more than compensated by the favourable location. Within a two-minute walk you are already in the city centre, which makes living here very practical and pleasant. In addition, the neighbourhood has a nice playground and is only a ten-minute walk from the beautiful river IJssel. In the early morning you can enjoy a beautiful sunrise there, which gives a peaceful start to the day. There are also various shops within walking distance, such as Albert Heijn, Lidl and Kruidvat, as well as other amenities that you can easily use on a weekly basis.
Auto-translated to English by AIHere in the immediate vicinity, a few residents cause a lot of nuisance. Regular parties until 01:30, both on weekdays and at weekends. Apart from that, it's a fine neighbourhood. Sometimes a bit busy. Houses are old and could do with a renovation. Think cracks in walls.

About Houtmarkt 65A, Zutphen
At €500,000, this apartment is priced below the average sold price in Stadskern (€512,357) and below the average asking price (€560,325). Given the large floor area of 194 m², the price per m² works out at about €2,577, which is well under the neighbourhood average of €3,807 per m². So it appears priced for its size.
Energy label G is the lowest rating, meaning the home is not energy-efficient. With a building year of 1558, the property likely has poor insulation and single glazing. You can expect high heating costs. In the neighbourhood, 26.3% of homes have label D or lower, so this is not unusual for the area, but it is something to budget for.
One resident mentions occasional noise from neighbours having parties until late, both on weekdays and weekends. Another resident finds the neighbourhood very positive, highlighting the proximity to the centre and the river. Overall, the neighbourhood scores 8.44 out of 10, so most residents are satisfied despite some disturbances.
The city centre is a two-minute walk away. SPAR supermarket is 311 m away, AH XL is 486 m, and Lidl is 750 m. Primary schools are within 600 m, secondary schools within 1 km. The train station is 0.9 km away, and the river IJssel is a ten-minute walk. Restaurants and a library are also close by.
At 194 m², this apartment is 25% larger than the neighbourhood average of 155 m². Most homes in Stadskern are older (65% built before 1945) and smaller. This is a spacious option in a historic setting.
The listing does not mention whether the building is a monument. Given the construction year of 1558 and the location in the historic centre, it is likely part of a protected cityscape, but you would need to verify this with the agent or the municipality.
