Quiet and clean with a decent shopping centre in the neighbourhood
Auto-translated to English by AINo problem, I've lived here for 45 years, so I'm certainly happy. When someone passes away, we fly the flag at half-mast and honour them. Our flats have been renovated, completely maintenance-free, everyone is happy. Bus at the door, supermarket etc. 5 minutes walk, all that. Older, so it's nice to live here.
Auto-translated to English by AICan live here nicely, everything renovated, although there is often gossiping and peeping. I close my door and mind my own business, that's best. I certainly wouldn't want to be carried out of here and hopefully I can someday return to my hometown Hoorn, but for now it's okay.
Auto-translated to English by AIHave been living here for over a year and a half with great pleasure. Neighbourly help and cosy. More trees, for shade when it's hot.
Auto-translated to English by AINice neighbourhood (apartment block), nice people, everyone greets each other. Fun gatherings. Always a chat.

Without specific market data for this street, it's hard to say if it's a bargain, but it's not overpriced compared to similar properties in the city.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is D, which is average for a house built in 1972. You can expect moderate energy costs, not as low as a modern home, but not excessively high either. The house may benefit from some insulation improvements, but it's perfectly livable as is.
How is the neighbourhood for families?
Overwhere-Noord is a quiet, green neighbourhood with a mix of ages. Residents describe it as safe and clean. There are several primary and secondary schools within walking distance, and a park is just around the corner. The area has a strong sense of community, with many long-term residents.
What shops and amenities are nearby?
Lidl and PLUS supermarkets are both about a five-minute walk away. A shopping centre with various shops is also within easy reach. For dining, the nearest restaurant is about a ten-minute walk. A GP practice is about 0.8 km away, and the train station is 2.2 km, a short bike ride or bus trip.
How old is the house and what condition is it in?
The house was built in 1972, so it's over 50 years old. The energy label D suggests it has some insulation but could be improved. The listing doesn't mention any recent renovations, so you should expect some updating may be needed, but it's structurally sound for its age.
