At €222,500, this studio is priced 78% below the average asking price in Boomberg, which is €1,023,500. However, the neighbourhood average is based on much larger homes (176 m² on average), so the price per square metre is actually €6,014, slightly above the neighbourhood average of €5,661 per m². Given the compact size and energy label E, the price is in line with what you would expect for a studio in this area.
The energy label is E. This means the home is not particularly energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with a better label. In Boomberg, over half of the homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for the area. The home was built in 1939, which explains the older energy performance.
The train station is 2 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short bike ride. This makes it easy to reach Amsterdam or Utrecht for work or leisure.

Generally good but things can always be better in my opinion
Auto-translated to English by AISafe neighbourhood, occasionally some nuisance from young people

Auto-translated to English by AII have lived in the Geuzenbuurt for 16 years, schools, supermarket. The station and the city centre are a 10-minute walk away, there is a playground on every corner. And there are several primary and secondary schools in the neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AINice area in terms of location, close to the forest, the centre and the cosy Gijsbrecht also nearby. Schools and supermarkets around the corner, really a top location. Fellow residents think too much of themselves. Small gardens, so close together and very noisy. Both young people at night and small children during the day. But a nice mix of ages.
Auto-translated to English by AINeighbourhood itself is fine. Nothing unpleasant. Only the Diependaalselaan is very busy and suffers from exhaust fumes. Speed bumps at the end would make a big difference. They always rev their engines right in front of the flats... Maybe more supervision there...
