A corner house with a garden in Klaarwater
This 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 was D, so heating costs were something to budget for.
