Studio Anne Franklaan 171, Purmerend - Youth Housing

This studio apartment is located on the first floor at Anne Franklaan 171 in Purmerend and has a total area of 32.6 m2. The living/sleeping area measures approximately 19.2 m2 and the layout includes a separate kitchen (about 7.6 m2), a bathroom (about 3.3 m2) with an integrated toilet, and a storage space of 2.5 m2 located on the ground floor which is shared with house number 171A. The property was built in 1970 and is currently classified with energy label D. Resident children are not permitted in this unit.

Interior features include a recently replaced kitchen fitted for electric cooking and a balcony adjacent to the living/sleeping area. Heating is provided via district heating and the bathroom contains the toilet. An intercom is present for access control. The description notes that because the building is older, occupants may notice more transmission of everyday sounds than in newer constructions.

The unit is offered as a youth dwelling with mandatory eligibility requirements: household size must be between 1 and 2 persons and ages must be between 18 and 22. The net rent is €454.07 per month with service costs of €52.65, bringing the gross monthly cost to €506.72. The rental contract for this property is limited to a maximum duration of five years. Because the rent is below €879.66 (price level 2024), tenants may be eligible to apply for housing allowance if they meet the relevant criteria.

The building will be renovated in occupied state as part of broader neighbourhood work in Wheermolen-Oost. Renovation measures described include removing cooking gas, installing new frames with solar-reflective HR++ glazing, and other sustainability and maintenance works; the homes are expected to reach at least energy label B after works. Additional building measures include the provision of a scooter/mobility scooter storage area. Practical notes: allocation is on a points basis, the first three candidates may be invited for a viewing together with a move-in advisor, pictured images and the floorplan may differ from the actual unit, and measured dimensions on the floorplan do not confer legal rights.
