Small neighbourhood. Different types of houses. Nice people living there. The community is not very large/good. In terms of safety, it could be improved by placing more lampposts. Accessibility is also minimal due to a shortage of parking spaces sometimes.

Auto-translated to English by AII've lived there for a very long time and almost nothing strange has ever happened
Auto-translated to English by AIIt is a relatively new neighbourhood, about 10 years old. It is quiet and child-friendly, and there is a primary school within walking distance. Furthermore, there are allotment gardens nearby, which bring cosiness and nature. There is also a nursing home for the elderly and senior housing close by. Seniors generally do not cause any nuisance. There are not very many dog owners, and most of those who are there clean up the poop. There are underground waste containers, and organic waste is collected separately via wheelie bins. Also not far from here is the municipal waste depot where people can dispose of bulky waste, so that kind of rubbish is not found on the streets. A downside is that public transport is not nearby. An artisan bakery is close by, as well as two churches. Those churches can of course cause a bit of nuisance on Sundays, but it's only a quarter of an hour that the church bells ring.

The asking price of €3,500,000 is 247% above the neighbourhood average of €1,009,769. However, this home is also 65% larger than the average (260 m² vs 158 m²) and is a historic property from 1600, which is rare in this area. The price per square metre works out at about €13,462, compared to the neighbourhood average of €6,707 per m². Whether it is fair depends on how much you value the size, age and location.
The home has an energy label E. In the neighbourhood, most homes have better labels: 57% have label A, 25% label B, and 14% label C. Label E means the home is less energy-efficient, so heating costs are likely to be higher. Given the building's age (1600), improvements such as insulation or double glazing may be limited by its monumental status.
The nearest train station is 4.2 km away. That is about a ten-minute drive or a 50-minute walk. There are no direct train stations within walking distance, so a car or bicycle is useful for longer journeys.
