Annen: a village with a strong sense of community
Annen is a close-knit village of around 3,500 residents, where most homes are owner-occupied and the streets are lined with single-family houses. One resident describes it as a "quiet neighbourhood, fine place to live," adding that "contact with immediate neighbours is good" and that there is "social control, but not in an annoying way." The village has sufficient daily amenities, and nearby Zuidlaren offers more extensive shopping. The municipality Aa en Hunze covers a wide rural area, so a car is handy for secondary schools and the train station.
Daily life on Borghoornsweg

A park or public garden is on your doorstep, and the village centre with its restaurant and library is a five-minute walk. The nearest secondary school is a longer drive, but the bus to Groningen runs every half hour.

Frequently asked questions
About Borghoornsweg 42, Annen
Was €375,000 a fair price for this house?
The asking price of €375,000 was 23% below the average asking price in Annen (€484,750) and also below the median of €397,000. Given that homes in the neighbourhood sell on average within 35 days, this price looked competitive for a 114 m² end-of-terrace house with a 485 m² plot.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The home has energy label C. That meant it had reasonable insulation and double glazing, so heating costs were moderate. In the neighbourhood, 20% of homes have label C, while 50% have a lower rating (D or worse), so this home is slightly above average in efficiency.
How far is the train station?
The nearest train station is 13.3 km away, so you would need a car or bus to reach it. The bus connection to Groningen is good, running every half hour, which makes commuting feasible.
What are the neighbours like?
Based on one review, neighbours are friendly and helpful. The resident says: "Contact with immediate neighbours is good. You can always ask for help or to borrow a lawnmower." There is social control without being intrusive, which gives a sense of safety.
Are there good schools nearby?
Basisschool De Eshoek is just 500 metres away, so primary school is an easy walk. For secondary education, the nearest schools are in Gieten or Assen, about 7.6 km away, so transport is needed.
What shops are within walking distance?
The Coop and Aldi are both about 500 metres away, so daily groceries are a short stroll. For more variety, Zuidlaren has a chemist and butcher, and the village centre has a restaurant and library.
How big is the garden?
The plot is 485 m², which is generous for an end-of-terrace house. The listing did not specify whether it was laid out as a garden, but the size suggested plenty of outdoor space.
