NeighbourhoodThis 1965 terraced house on Koning Willemstraat sits in a quiet part of Castricum, with a 144 m² plot and 105 m² of living space. The energy label is D, so heating costs will be noticeable.

The nature in the neighbourhood is beautiful. Lots of greenery and water that attract birds and wildlife. Many birdwatchers come to our neighbourhood and forests to see special birds. The fountain opposite the Geesterduin shopping centre is my favourite. Behind it lies a small park, perfect for walking your dog or children. There are also many playgrounds for the little ones. Both the forests and the beach are within 10 minutes, lovely to spend your time on a sunny day. The neighbourhood of Castricum also has excellent connections with public transport. Furthermore, there are many supermarkets, including the Albert Heijn which is open until 10 PM. Very handy if you need to get something from the supermarket in the evening. There are also many cute clothing shops. There is a wide choice of education in the neighbourhood, with as many as 3 secondary schools to choose from. There is a suitable school for every level. The people in this neighbourhood are very friendly and everyone knows each other. Always nice to have a chat or simply say hello.

About Koning Willemstraat 8, Castricum
The asking price of €500,000 is below the average sale price of €695,600 for homes sold recently in Oranjebuurt. Given the 105 m² floor area and 144 m² plot, the price is keen compared to the local market. However, the energy label D means higher energy costs than a more efficient home.
Oranjebuurt is a quiet, green neighbourhood with a strong community feel.

The energy label is D, which is average for a house built in 1965. It means the home is not as energy-efficient as modern builds, so you can expect higher heating and electricity costs. Improvements like insulation or solar panels could improve the label.
The plot size is 144 m², but the listing does not specify whether this includes a garden. The resident mentions a small park behind the Geesterduin shopping centre and many playgrounds, but the home's own outdoor space is not described.
