About Rijksweg Zuid 77, Swalmen
The asking price of €365,000 is slightly below the neighbourhood median of €384,250, but above the minimum of €315,000. Given that the house is 27% larger than the average home in Swalmen-Centrum (177 m² vs 139 m²), the price per m² works out to about €2,062, well below the neighbourhood average of €3,367 per m². So it is priced keenly for its size.
The energy label is F, which is one of the lower ratings. This means the home is not very energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating costs compared to a modern home. In the neighbourhood, about 33% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for a house built in 1937.
Swalmen-Centrum is a quiet, safe neighbourhood with a village atmosphere. A resident describes it as "quietly situated in nature on a dead-end road" with good access to the city and motorway. There is a supermarket (Jan Linders) within a five-minute walk, a primary school just around the corner, and a train station a ten-minute walk away. The area has a mix of ages, with many older residents.
The plot is 265 m², which is a decent size 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 how the plot is laid out.
The listing does not state the number of bedrooms. With 177 m² of living space, it is likely to have several rooms, but the exact layout is not provided. You would need to contact the agent for a floor plan.
The house was built in 1937 and has an energy label F, which suggests it may need some modernisation, especially in terms of insulation and heating. The listing does not mention any recent renovations, so it is worth inspecting the property thoroughly.
Basisschool Lambertus is just a couple of streets away (about 328 m). Other primary schools within cycling distance include De Octopus and Sint Theresia. For secondary education, the nearest school is about 4 km away, so a bike or car is handy.
The train station is 0.9 km away, which is about a ten-minute walk. This makes it easy to reach Roermond or other cities without a car.
