A compact studio in the heart of Gorinchem
This studio on Kalkhaven puts you right in the middle of the historic centre, with the harbour just outside your door. At 38 m² it's a compact home, but the layout makes the most of the space. The last known price of €240,000 was keen compared to the neighbourhood average, partly because of the size, it was 61% smaller than the typical home in Bovenstad. For more context, see studios in Gorinchem. This home has not been online since 14 August 2026.
The Bovenstad neighbourhood
Bovenstad is the historic heart of Gorinchem, with narrow streets, old buildings and a lively atmosphere. The area has a mix of ages: about a quarter of homes were built before 1945, another quarter between 1945 and 1970, and the rest more recently. Most residents are singles or couples without children, and the average household size is 1.8. There are no resident reviews available for this neighbourhood, so the picture comes from the statistics. Learn more about the Bovenstad neighbourhood.

Two primary schools are within a couple of streets away: CBS De Tamboerijn and obs De Tweemaster. For secondary education, Fortes Lyceum is a ten-minute walk. The train station is 1.4 km away, so a short cycle or bus ride. For more on the wider area, see the municipality of Gorinchem.
