About Dorpsstraat 135, Benthuizen
The price is in line with what other semi-detached homes in Alphen aan den Rijn sell for. The 140 m² floor area and 245 m² plot are typical for this type of property in the area. Without specific market data for the neighbourhood, it is hard to say if it is a bargain, but it is not overpriced compared to similar listings.
The energy label is D. This means the home is not particularly energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating bills compared to a home with label A or B. The house was built in 1935, so insulation may be less modern. It is worth checking the exact energy performance certificate for details.
The nearest train station is 6.8 km away. That is about a 15-minute drive or a longer bike ride. For daily commuting by train, you would need to factor in travel time to the station.
