The asking price of €425,000 matches the median price in Bleyenburg exactly, so it's in line with the local market. The average price per m² in the neighbourhood is €4,717, and this home works out at about €4,381 per m², which is slightly below that average. Given the property's age and energy label D, the price seems reasonable for a classic end-of-terrace house.
The home has energy label D. This is a middling rating, not as efficient as modern homes, but not the worst either. You can expect moderate heating costs, but it's worth noting that a third of homes in Bleyenburg have label A or better, so this one is a bit behind the curve. The house was built in 1938, so some insulation improvements may have been made over the years.
Public transport is limited, as one resident points out. The nearest train station is 9.2 km away, so commuting by rail requires a bike or car to the station. Bus services are not detailed in the data, but the neighbourhood is not well-connected by public transport. Most residents rely on cars for longer journeys.
There are several primary schools within walking distance: Taalschool Westland (199 m), Prins Mauritsschool (279 m), Koningin Julianaschool (310 m), and Openbare Basisschool De Vlieten (351 m). For secondary education, the nearest school is 4.8 km away, so older children will need to travel further.
The listing does not specify the garden's size or orientation, but as an end-of-terrace house, it likely has a private outdoor space. You would need to view the property to confirm the exact layout and condition of the garden.
With 97 m² of living space, it could have two or three bedrooms, but this is not confirmed. You would need to check the floor plan or visit the property to know for sure.
Bleyenburg is a quiet, family-friendly neighbourhood. About 42% of households have children, and the area has a high proportion of single-family homes (85%). Residents appreciate the peace and quiet, though one notes a lack of secondary schools and dog poop on the streets. Overall, it's a calm place for raising kids.
In the past year, sold homes in Bleyenburg spent an average of 48 days on the market. That's a fairly typical period, not exceptionally fast, but not slow either. The current home has been listed at a price that matches the median, so it may attract interest without being a bargain.

Auto-translated to English by AIFew problems here. Only parking on the street is difficult.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood is quiet but I do think there should be more enforcement, especially now that it gets dark quickly, that would give me more peace of mind. What could be better is people looking out for each other more.
Auto-translated to English by AIFew problems here. Last armed robbery at the Chinese takeaway was about 10 years ago, I think. And the boss of the kebab shop on the corner of the street was arrested for drug trafficking, also years ago. They are doing a major renovation on a building two houses down from me. I'm curious what will go in there.
Auto-translated to English by AIDecent neighbourhood with nice playgrounds. Parks are poorly maintained and very monotonous in terms of planting. There is quite a lot of litter in the area and apart from two primary schools, there are hardly any facilities nearby.
Auto-translated to English by AIHere people still greet you on the street. You feel seen here. The nature is beautiful with lots of greenery and water. This is an excellent location for a growing family with excellent amenities.
Auto-translated to English by AII have good contact with my direct neighbours. Apart from that, all nice people.
Auto-translated to English by AIThere are many children in the neighbourhood and if you have children yourself it's a nice area for that. Young people don't really socialise with each other. The houses are nice and there's a park nearby, a 5-minute walk away, which is also chill. Living by the water is beautiful, especially if you have a boat.
