About Siriusstraat 8, Ijmuiden
The price is in line with what other terraced homes in Velsen sell for. Given the 109 m² floor area and 138 m² plot, it's a reasonable asking price for a home that needs some energy upgrades due to the E label.
The energy label is E, which means the home is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating bills compared to a home with a better label. Improving insulation or installing solar panels could help reduce costs.
Lidl is just 36 metres away, literally on your doorstep. Dekamarkt and Aldi are also within a few minutes' walk, so daily shopping is very convenient.
Kindcentrum De Pleiaden is 113 metres away, and De Zefier is 354 metres away, both primary schools. For secondary education, Tender College is about 400 metres away, offering practical and VMBO tracks.
The nearest train station is 5.2 km away, so it's not within walking distance. You would need a bike or car to reach it, but bus connections may be available.
Canopusbuurt is a quiet, family-friendly area with a strong sense of community. Residents describe it as safe and friendly, with many children playing outside. It's urban but not noisy.
The house was built in 1963, so it's over 60 years old. The E energy label suggests that insulation and heating systems may need updating, but the structure is solid. No major renovation is mentioned in the listing.
