Gouderak, Krimpenerwaard
NeighbourhoodThis 2013-built semi-detached house on Essendreef 2 sits in a quiet part of Gouderak, a village in the Krimpenerwaard polder landscape. With an energy label A+, it's efficient and well-insulated. The asking price of €580,000 is 28% below the neighbourhood average of €807,750, partly because the 133 m² floor area is smaller than the local norm of 191 m². For context, semi-detached houses in Krimpenerwaard typically command higher prices.

One resident calls it a "Fine neighbourhood" (score 8.4), while another is less enthusiastic: "I think people here are a lot less open and thoughtful than in larger cities... It is nicely green with the polders, that's why we came here." Based on two reviews, the neighbourhood scores 7.2 out of 10. The municipality Krimpenerwaard is known for its rural character.
For groceries, Boon's Markt is just around the corner, with Albert Heijn and Aldi a couple of streets away. Two primary schools, De Bron and obs De Kranepoort, are a five-minute walk. The nearest secondary school is 5 km away, so older children travel further. The village has a GP practice 600 m away and a restaurant 900 m away. The train station is 5.4 km from home.

Fine neighbourhood
Auto-translated to English by AII think people here are a lot less open and thoughtful than in larger cities, which is a shame. For example, the atmosphere at the swimming pool isn't always pleasant either, sometimes there are arguments and once an assault. Also, I find there's not much to do, you're better off going into Gouda. It is nicely green with the polders, that's why we came here.
