About Constantijn Huygensstraat 65, Gouda
The asking price of €295,000 is 20% below the neighbourhood average of €366,643, but the home is also smaller than average (61 m² vs 94 m²). Compared to similar terraced houses in Gouda, the price per m² works out at about €4,836, which is above the neighbourhood average of €4,119 per m². So while the total price is low, you're paying a premium for the compact size.
Energy label D is an official registration from EP-Online. It means the home is not among the most efficient, so you can expect moderate energy costs. The label does not directly tell you about the condition of the insulation or heating system, it's a combined score. In the neighbourhood, 69% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is fairly typical for the area.
The nearest train station is 1.6 km away, which is about a 20-minute walk or a short cycle ride. Gouda station offers connections to Utrecht, Rotterdam, and The Hague, among other destinations.
There are several primary schools within walking distance: the Westerschool (244 m), De Goudakker (638 m), and St. Aloysius (814 m). For secondary education, De Goudse Waarden is about 1.3 km away. All are within a comfortable distance for daily school runs.

How residents experience their municipality
Little greenery, often a lot of rubbish. But there are good small businesses and supermarkets in the neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AII think it's a cosy and nice neighbourhood where I feel very safe.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood is safe, social and is growing towards a better environment and in terms of facilities.
Auto-translated to English by AIQuite a lot of Poles
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a great neighbourhood, with many growing children and families, unfortunately the education in Goverwelle is not so good and the good primary schools are far away.
Auto-translated to English by AIMany trees cut down Kazerne Why ???? make the rest a bit cosy yourself RINUS
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a shame that the people in the Jozefhof hardly connect with each other; the owner-occupied apartments do, but the rental apartments have little interaction with each other. That might also be because the young people all work. But even when a neighbourhood party is organised, I don't see them either; making connections is not a thing, not even with the joy and sorrow fund. And what I also miss in this neighbourhood is a community centre; quite a lot of elderly people live here, which is a pity. And there are also people in this neighbourhood who are alone and lonely. Accessibility is good, safety could always be better. In the apartment complex, we sometimes have unwanted guests. Facilities are good; shops around the corner, GP and station are around the corner. Daily amenities are available.
