Always cheerful and friendly people! There are good facilities in the neighbourhood. The nature is beautiful and it's also reasonably safe. I have very fond childhood memories of this neighbourhood!!
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's all very distant, personally I have no contact with the people in the neighbourhood.

About Beukenhorst 83, Driebergen-Rijsenburg
The price is in line with the market for this type of home in Utrechtse Heuvelrug. The 58 m² floor area and E energy label are typical for a 1960s apartment. Without comparable sales data for the immediate neighbourhood, it's hard to say if it's a bargain, but it's not overpriced.
Driebergen-Oost en Zuid scores 7.6 out of 10 from three reviews. Residents mention a cosy atmosphere with friendly people and beautiful nature, though one reviewer finds it distant. The area is moderately urban with a mix of families and older residents. Most homes are owner-occupied.
The nearest train station is 3.5 km away, which is about a ten-minute cycle or a short bus ride. This makes commuting to Utrecht or other cities feasible but not walkable.

Energy label E means the home is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating bills compared to a home with label A or B. It's worth considering improvements like insulation or double glazing, but the exact costs depend on the current systems.
The listing does not mention a garden or terrace. The plot size is not stated, so it's unclear if there is any private outdoor space. The neighbourhood has a park just 0.4 km away.
