About Hees 30, Ruinen (Gem. De Wolden)
At 207 m² with energy label A, the price per square metre is around €6,522. That is above average for the area, but the combination of size, efficiency, and rural setting is rare. Without comparable sales in the immediate neighbourhood, it is hard to say exactly, but the listing suggests a premium for the unique character.
The energy label is A, which is very efficient. This means the home is well insulated and has low heating costs compared to older properties. Given the building year of 1874, the label A indicates significant modernisation has been done.

How residents experience their municipality
Many farmers who can't handle it when you form your own opinion. Refugees in our village are simply called names like black dogs by children. This is not new! This is a village that accepts nothing from outside and is extremely racist. I also smoke a joint for pain, but I'm treated like a junkie and immediately assumed to be a dealer? Bad experiences with people from the neighbourhood because they only accept their own. Hardly anything to do for young people, especially if you're 18+. I attended both primary schools; I was bullied at the OBS, and the CBS was also a bad environment for a child.

Auto-translated to English by AIIf you think of rural living, this is where you end up. There's a school for the youngest villagers. Otherwise wonderfully quiet, and having to go to another place for groceries is just the way it is! Here you can still put things outside and enjoy the sheep in the meadow.
