About IJsselmeerweg 21, Marken
The asking price of €288,750 is on the low side compared to similar homes in Waterland, especially given the 115 m² floor area and 229 m² plot. However, the energy label D means heating costs will be higher than in a modern home. The price reflects the location on Marken, which is more remote than mainland villages.
The energy label is D, which is average for a house built in 1964. You can expect moderate energy costs, but improvements like cavity wall insulation or double glazing could bring it up to a C or B. The exact consumption depends on your usage and the current insulation state.
The nearest train station is 19.3 km away, so this home is not ideal for daily commuting by rail. Most residents rely on a car or bus for longer journeys. The bus connections from Marken to Purmerend and Amsterdam are the main public transport links.
The closest primary school is De Rietlanden, about 700 metres away. There are three other primary schools within 5 km, including Sint Jozef Basisschool and De Samensprong. For secondary education, the nearest is Don Bosco College, roughly 4.8 km away in Monnickendam.
