Noord-Oost west, Smallingerland
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Stationsweg sits in the heart of Drachten, a lively town in Friesland. With an energy label A+++, it's exceptionally efficient, a rare find in this neighbourhood where none of the current sales have that top rating. At €315,000, the price is keen compared to the average of €450,000 in the area, partly because the 62 m² floor area is 55% smaller than the typical home here. For context, see other apartments in Smallingerland.
The neighbourhood Noord-Oost west is a compact urban area with a mix of ages, a quarter of residents are 65 or older, and many live alone. It's densely built, with over 2,700 addresses per km², so there's always activity. There are no resident reviews available for this street, but the area feels established and practical. The neighbourhood Noord-Oost west has a high proportion of pre-1970 homes, which makes this 1955 apartment with its modern energy label stand out.
Your daily routine is well covered here. For groceries, Poiesz is just around the corner, with Aldi and Lidl a couple of streets away.

About Stationsweg 60D, Drachten
The asking price of €315,000 is below the neighbourhood average of €450,000, but the apartment is also smaller than typical homes here (62 m² vs 139 m² average). The price per m² works out at about €5,080, which is higher than the neighbourhood average of €3,237 per m². So while the total price is lower, you're paying a premium per square metre, partly because of the excellent energy label.
Energy label A+++ is the highest possible rating, meaning the home is extremely energy-efficient. You can expect very low heating and electricity costs compared to older homes. In this neighbourhood, all current sales have label A, so this A+++ is a step above, it's a rare find and will keep your energy expenses minimal.
The nearest train station is 18.6 km away, so this home is not ideal for daily commuting by train. You'd rely on a car or bus for longer journeys.
Primary school De Swetten is 240 m away, and secondary school OSG Singelland, Drachtster Lyceum is 253 m away. There are also several other schools within a few hundred metres, including De Zwaai (special secondary education) and It Ambyld (primary). So school runs are very short.
The neighbourhood recorded 23 total crimes in the latest data, which for a densely populated area is moderate. There are no specific resident reviews available, but the area feels typical for a town centre. You can check local crime maps for more detail.
Poiesz is just 350 m away, with Aldi and Lidl within 500 m. Albert Heijn and Jumbo are also within a ten-minute walk. So you have plenty of options for daily shopping without needing a car.
