Klaarwater, Soest
NeighbourhoodThis corner house on Johannes Poststraat sits in a quiet part of Soest, where the streets are lined with similar homes from the 1970s. With 128 m² of living space and a 180 m² plot, there is room for a family. The energy label is D, so heating costs are something to budget for. At €550,000, the asking price is above the neighbourhood average of €490,000, which reflects the larger-than-average plot and the corner position. For context, end-of-terrace houses in Soest tend to command a premium.

Nice green outdoors, friendly people, shop and bus stop nearby." Another calls it a "Perfect place to grow up."

About Johannes Poststraat 27, Soest
The asking price of €550,000 is above the neighbourhood average of €490,000 and the median of €475,000. However, this home has a larger plot (180 m²) than many in the area, and corner houses often sell for more. Recently sold homes in Klaarwater went for an average of €439,000, but those may have been smaller or in different conditions. The price is on the high side but not unreasonable given the specifics.
The energy label is D, which is average for a home built in 1970. In the neighbourhood, 40% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is typical. You can expect moderate heating costs, but improvements like better insulation or a more efficient heating system could bring the label up and reduce bills.
Residents rate it highly: an 8.19 out of 10 from two reviews. One says it's 'lovely' with green outdoors and friendly people, another calls it a 'perfect place to grow up.' The area has a mix of ages, with many families and older residents. Shops and a bus stop are nearby, and the train station is a ten-minute walk away.
Basisschool de Achtbaan is just around the corner (227 m), and De Bron is a five-minute walk (525 m). Several other primary schools are within a ten-minute walk. For secondary education, the nearest school is 2.6 km away, so a bike or bus is handy.
