Raam en omgeving, Gouda
NeighbourhoodThis 1885 townhouse on Hoge Gouwe sits right in the heart of Gouda, with the market square and the old town literally on your doorstep. At 153 m² and with an energy label D, it's a spacious home that needs some attention on heating costs. The asking price of €575,000 is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average, but for a property of this size and character it's in line with what other terraced houses in Gouda go for.
Raam e.o. is the historic core of Gouda, with a very high density of addresses, you're surrounded by shops, cafés and restaurants. One resident describes it as "Ugly but in a top location," adding that "all possible amenities are in the neighbourhood" but that "there is very little greenery, and there are often bits of plastic and stuff lying in the street." It's a busy area, especially on King's Day. The neighbourhood Raam e.o. has a mix of ages, with many singles and couples, and a relatively low share of families with children.
For your morning bread, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and Lidl and Coop are a couple of streets away. Two primary schools, St. Aloysius and Casimirschool, are within a five-minute walk, making the school run easy. The municipality Gouda has a compact centre, so most daily errands are on foot or by bike. The train station is a ten-minute walk, handy for trips to Utrecht or The Hague.
At the time of writing the home is listed via Dupree Makelaars Gouda and also appears on Funda, so it's available through several channels.

The houses are really ugly, everything is expensive. No students. All possible amenities in the neighbourhood. King's Day is always way too busy. Very little greenery, and there are often bits of plastic and stuff lying in the street. There might be a neighbourhood get-together but only 8 people go.

About Hoge Gouwe 45, Gouda
The asking price is €575,000, which is slightly above the average sold price in the neighbourhood (€413,258) and above the median asking price (€395,000). However, this home is larger than average (153 m² vs 168 m² average for sold homes) and is a historic townhouse in the centre. Given the limited supply (13 homes for sale), the price is on the high side but reflects the size and location.
Energy label D is average for a pre-war home, it means the house is not very efficient, so heating costs will be noticeable. In the neighbourhood, 25% of homes have label D or lower, while 25% have label C and 25% have label B. The listing's hook notes that most other homes for sale in the area have a better energy label, so this is something to factor in.
Raam e.o. is very central, with a supermarket (Albert Heijn) just around the corner and many restaurants within a couple of streets away. The resident review mentions that all amenities are nearby, but also that there is little greenery and some litter. It's a busy, urban area with a high density of addresses, ideal if you like being in the thick of things.
Two primary schools are within a five-minute walk: St. Aloysius (310 m) and Casimirschool (421 m). A secondary school, Het Segment School v PRO, is about 900 m away. The neighbourhood has a fair number of families with children (270 households), so schools are well-used.
Gouda railway station is 1.5 km away, about a ten-minute walk. From there you can reach Utrecht in about 20 minutes and The Hague in about 30 minutes. The station is easily accessible on foot or by bike.
The plot is 97 m², but the listing does not mention a garden. The resident review notes very little greenery in the neighbourhood, so it's likely that outdoor space is limited.
