About Beijert 12, Naarden
The asking price of €495,000 is 55% below the neighbourhood average of €1,093,000. However, the home is also smaller than average (75 m² vs 152 m²). The price per square metre works out to €6,600, which is close to the neighbourhood average of €6,770 per m². So it's priced in line with the local market for its size.
Energy label G is the lowest rating, meaning the home is not energy-efficient. With a 1920s build, you can expect high heating costs and poor insulation. In the neighbourhood, 42.9% of homes have label D or lower, so this is not unusual for the area, but you'll want to budget for energy bills.
The nearest train station is 2.3 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a 10-minute cycle. It's not on your doorstep, but it's manageable for commuting.
There are several primary schools within walking distance: Rehobothschool is 207 m away, Vondelschool Bussum is 549 m, and Interconfessionele Basisschool de Tweemaster is 578 m. For secondary education, Yuverta vmbo Naarden is 1.1 km away.
Naarden Vesting recorded 74 total crimes in the latest data, which is relatively low for a town of this size. The area feels safe and quiet, with a park nearby and a mix of ages.
