About Schoutstraat 4, Alphen Aan Den Rijn
The asking price of €400,000 is in line with the market for a mid-terrace house of this size in Gouwsluis. The 90 m² floor area and 149 m² plot are typical for the area, and the energy label C means moderate energy costs. Without comparable sales data for the immediate neighbourhood, it's hard to say if it's a bargain, but it's not overpriced for the current market.
The energy label is C, which is average for a house built in 1989. You can expect reasonable energy bills, but not the lowest possible. If you want to improve efficiency, you could consider additional insulation or solar panels, but the label is not a cause for concern.
The nearest train station is 2.6 km away, which is about a 30-minute walk or a short cycle ride. It's not on your doorstep, but it's accessible for commuting.
There are several primary schools within walking distance. Protestant Christelijke Basisschool De Windroos is 839 m away, and Basisschool de Rank is 1 km away. For secondary education, the nearest school is 1.7 km away. The area is well served for families with school-age children.
Gouwsluis has a low crime rate, with only 15 recorded incidents in the area. It's a quiet, family-friendly neighbourhood where most residents own their homes. The streets feel safe, and the park nearby adds to the pleasant atmosphere.
The listing does not mention a garden, but the plot size of 149 m² suggests there is outdoor space.
