For your morning bread, Dirk is just around the corner, and AH XL is a couple of streets away. There's also a SPAR and an Ekoplaza. Families have a choice of primary schools: Basisschool De Cirkel is a five-minute walk, and Kindcentrum Emmaschool is a bit further. For secondary education, Gomarus College Assen is 487 m away. The municipality Assen keeps the centre well maintained, so the streets are clean and the parks are a short stroll away.
At the time of writing the home is listed via Lamberink and also appears on Funda, so it's available through several channels. The price is sharp for the area, so it may not stay on the market long.
