About Braamhorst 8, Alphen Aan Den Rijn
Yes, it's in line with the market. For a mid-terrace house of 140 m² with a garden and energy label C in Alphen aan den Rijn, €2,100 is a reasonable asking price. The neighbourhood is popular with families, and similar homes in the area tend to go for around that figure.
The home has energy label C. That means it's reasonably efficient, you won't face sky-high heating bills, but it's not as efficient as a modern A-label home. The house was built in 1986, so it likely has double glazing and cavity wall insulation, but you may want to check the exact details.
The nearest train station is 4.5 km away, which is about a ten-minute drive or a 20-minute bike ride. It's not within walking distance, so you'll need a car or bicycle for commuting by train.
