2-Room Apartment Johan Kerkmeijerstraat 78, Hoorn - For Rent

This 2-room apartment is located at Johan Kerkmeijerstraat 78 in Hoorn and is part of the upcoming Holenkwartier neighborhood within community Blok 14. The upper-floor apartment has a total surface area of 56 m² and features one bedroom. The layout includes a living room of 29.50 m², a bedroom of 11.50 m², an open kitchen of 7.00 m², a bathroom of 3.50 m², and an internal storage room of 4.50 m². The building is scheduled for completion in September 2026 and is designed as an energy-neutral development with sustainable features throughout.

The apartment is equipped with modern energy-efficient systems, including floor heating, a heat recovery ventilation system, and a heat pump boiler. Heat and cold are sourced from an underground system known as Warmte Koude Opslag (WKO), meaning the homes are completely gas-free. Solar panels, double glazing, and collective heating support the building's energy-neutral status. Electric cooking is required, and the new tenant will be informed about the appropriate connection type for the cooking appliance at the time of handover.

Residents of Blok 14 form a community built on values of inclusivity, involvement, collaboration, responsibility, respect, and social connection. As part of this community, residents take shared responsibility for allocations, garden maintenance, and the use of a communal living room. Active participation in one of several teams is expected, including teams for garden and terrace, the communal house, activities, the allocation panel, and the Blok 14 board. Automatic membership in the Residents' Association Blok 14 applies to all tenants. This setup is suitable for starters, small families, seniors, and individuals who may benefit from additional support, provided they share the motivation to contribute to the community.

The net rental price is €713.02 per month (price level 2026), with service costs of €78.11 per month, bringing the gross rent to €791.13. In addition, tenants pay separate WKO costs directly to the energy supplier for heating and warm water. Allocation is handled through a process called Anders Toewijzen, where motivation and self-reliance play a larger role than registration duration. Income requirements apply, with a maximum taxable income of €51,537 for single-person households and €56,910 for multi-person households (price level 2026). A tax income statement from 2024 or 2025 is required for allocation. The property includes an internal storage room and access to a lift within the building.
