About Botter 16, Barendrecht
The asking price of €499,000 is below the neighbourhood average of €622,500, but this home is also 27% smaller than the typical 172 m² in Buitenoord 1. The price per square metre works out at about €3,992, which is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €3,736 per m². So it's priced a bit on the high side for its size, but the corner location and garden add value.
The energy label is C, which is average for a house built in 1973. It means the home is reasonably well-insulated but not as efficient as modern builds. You can expect moderate energy bills, but improvements like double glazing or better insulation could bring the label up.
The nearest train station is 1.7 km away, which is about a 20-minute walk or a short bike ride. That makes commuting to Rotterdam or other cities quite convenient.
There are several primary schools within walking distance, such as Openbare Basisschool De Draaimolen (480 m) and CBS Groen van Prinstererschool (547 m). For secondary education, the nearest school is about 500 m away. The area is well-served for families with children.
