About W J Tuijnstraat 1, Volendam
The asking price of €285,000 is 39% below the average asking price in the neighbourhood (€468,929) and also below the median of €395,000. However, the house is smaller than average (60 m² vs 114 m²) and has an energy label G, which means higher energy costs. Given the need for modernisation, the price is in line with what you would expect for a compact, older home in need of updating.
The energy label is G, the lowest rating. This means the house is not energy-efficient and will have high heating costs. You would likely need to invest in insulation, double glazing, and possibly a new heating system to improve the label. In the neighbourhood, 50% of homes have label A, so this house is significantly less efficient than many others.
The nearest train station is 10.6 km away, so this is not a location for daily commuting by train. You would rely on a car or bus for longer journeys. The bus network in Volendam connects to nearby towns.
There are several primary schools within walking distance: Sint Jozef Basisschool is 143 metres away, and De Samensprong is 444 metres away. For secondary education, Don Bosco College is about 1 km away. The area has a good selection of schools within a short distance.
