Dorp Noord, Baarle-Nassau
NeighbourhoodThis 1972 corner house on Oranjelaan sits in a peaceful residential area where children once played carefree in the street. With 184 m² of living space, it is 27% larger than the average home in the neighbourhood, a real bonus for those who value room to spread out. The energy label is E, so heating costs will be something to factor in. At €529,000, the asking price is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €520,000, but the extra square metres and corner position make it a fair proposition compared to other end-of-terrace houses in Baarle-Nassau.
The neighbourhood Dorp Noord is a low-density neighbourhood with mostly single-family homes (96%) and a high proportion of owner-occupied properties (67%). One resident describes it as 'very quiet and easy to reach', adding that 'the municipality prunes and keeps everything tidy every week'. The same review notes that facilities like shops and school are just outside the neighbourhood, a supermarket is a five-minute bike ride away. With 400 residents aged 65 or over and 195 households with children, the area has a mixed but settled feel. The only downside mentioned is that there is little contact among neighbours.
For daily errands, the Jumbo supermarket is just around the corner, with Aldi and Albert Heijn also within a couple of streets away. Primary school BS de Uilenpoort is a five-minute walk, and secondary school De la Salle is even closer, practically on your doorstep. The municipality Baarle-Nassau keeps the public spaces tidy, and the neighbourhood has a low crime rate (25 incidents total). A train station is 18.3 km away, so a car is handy for longer journeys.
At the time of writing, this home is listed through several channels, including Thuiz Makelaardij B.V. and Funda. The agent has provided full details on the property, so you can get a clear picture from the listing.

Oranjelaan 2, Baarle-Nassau
Good · 1 resident
This neighbourhood is very quiet and easy to reach. When I grew up here, we always played carefree in the street. Facilities such as school, shops, etc. are all located outside the neighbourhood, but never far away. For example, the supermarket is a 5-minute bike ride. There is little contact among the residents. Every week the municipality prunes and keeps everything tidy. This is a fine neighbourhood, with houses from the 1970s, which can be a bit outdated but are still perfectly liveable.

About Oranjelaan 2, Baarle-Nassau
The asking price is €529,000, which is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €520,000 and the median of €475,000. However, the home is 27% larger than the typical home in Dorp Noord (184 m² vs 145 m²), and it is a corner house with a 369 m² plot. Given the extra space and the corner position, the price is in line with what you would expect for this type of property in Baarle-Nassau.
The energy label is E, which means the home is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with a better label. In the neighbourhood, 50% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for a house built in 1972. It may be worth considering improvements like insulation or solar panels to reduce energy bills.
Dorp Noord is a quiet, safe neighbourhood with mostly single-family homes. There are 195 households with children, and primary and secondary schools are within walking distance. One resident recalls playing carefree in the street as a child. The main facilities are just outside the neighbourhood but never far away, a supermarket is a five-minute bike ride. It is a fine place for families who value peace and space.
The closest supermarket is Jumbo at 687 m, followed by Aldi (845 m) and Albert Heijn (849 m). For schools, secondary school De la Salle is just 141 m away, and primary school BS de Uilenpoort is 419 m. A third primary school, Basisschool Bernardus, is about 4.9 km away. All are easily reachable on foot or by bike.
The nearest train station is 18.3 km away, so public transport by train is not very convenient for daily commuting. A car or bicycle is more practical for getting around.
The plot size is 369 m², which is generous for a corner house. However, the listing does not specify whether there is a garden, terrace, or other outdoor space. You would need to check the property details or visit to see the actual layout of the outdoor area.
