Burgemeesterskwartier, Alkmaar
NeighbourhoodThis is a rare find: a brand-new detached house in Burgemeesterskwartier, one of Alkmaar's most sought-after residential areas. With 223 m² of living space and a 345 m² plot, it's a proper family home. At €1,125,000, it's the priciest of the five homes currently for sale in the neighbourhood and sits 61% above the local average asking price of €698,000, but then you're getting a newly built home with an A+++ energy label, which is exceptional in an area where most homes date from before 1945. For context, detached houses in Alkmaar at this level are scarce.
Burgemeesterskwartier is a quiet, green neighbourhood with a strong sense of community. One resident sums it up: "Top neighbourhood, one of the few areas where there are still real neighbours. No crime, quiet but still cosy. Just perfect." Another gives it an 8 out of 10. Based on two reviews, the neighbourhood scores an 8.82, very high. It's a family-oriented area: most homes are owner-occupied (95%) and single-family (85%), with an average household size of 2.5. Incomes are above average, and the streets are safe (just 40 crimes recorded). The neighbourhood Burgemeesterskwartier is a place where people know each other.
For your daily bread, the AH XL is just around the corner, and Lidl and Albert Heijn are a couple of streets away. Two primary schools, Basisschool De Stek and Openbare Basisschool De Fontein, are within a five-minute walk, and PCC Het Lyceum for secondary education is about a ten-minute walk. A park or public garden is on your doorstep, and restaurants are even closer. The municipality Alkmaar has plenty to offer, but in this corner you rarely need to leave the neighbourhood.
At the time of writing, the home is listed exclusively via Maarten van Vliet Makelaars.
