About Hoofdstraat 66E, Hoogezand
At €175,000, this is the cheapest home currently for sale in Westerpark and 34% below the neighbourhood average asking price of €263,688. However, the floor area (63 m²) is 39% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 103 m², and the energy label G means higher running costs. The price is keen relative to other listings, but the total cost of ownership depends on your energy use.
Energy label G is the least efficient rating. The home was built in 1972, so insulation and heating systems are likely outdated. You can expect high heating bills compared to a modern home. The neighbourhood has 50% of homes with label D or lower, so this is not unusual for the area, but it is worth factoring into your budget.
The train station is 0.8 km away, about a ten-minute walk. The area is well-connected for a town of this size.
There are several primary schools within walking distance: OBS De Ontdekking at 143 m, Basisschool De Lichtbron at 286 m, and CBS Het Galjoen at 459 m. A secondary school is 0.5 km away. All are within a comfortable walk or short cycle.
Albert Heijn and Jumbo are both less than 1 km away (816 m and 879 m respectively), so daily shopping is a short walk. Lidl and Aldi are also within 1 km. You have several options for groceries.
