About Schoolstraat 18, Drachten
The asking price of €285,000 is slightly below the average sale price of €314,667 for homes sold recently in De Swetten oost. However, those sold homes may have been larger or more modern. Given the 81 m² floor area and 1910 construction, the price seems in line with the market, though the corner-house layout adds value.
The energy label is C, which is average for a house from 1910. It means the home has some insulation and double glazing, but heating costs will be moderate. You won't face the high bills of a G-label home, but it's not as efficient as a modern A-label property.
The nearest train station is 18.1 km away, so this is not a home for daily rail commuters. You'd rely on a car or bus for longer journeys. The area is better suited for local living.
Primary school De Swetten is just 143 metres away, ideal for young children. For secondary education, OSG Singelland - Drachtster Lyceum is 349 metres away, and OSG Singelland - VHS is 459 metres. There are also several other schools within a short walk.
Currently, there are no homes for sale in the neighbourhood, but three have sold recently. This suggests a tight market where homes don't stay available for long. The average time on market was 22 days, indicating quick sales.
De Swetten oost has a mix of households: 120 with children and 125 without. Many residents are between 45 and 65, but there are also younger families. With 71% single-family homes and good schools nearby, it's a family-friendly area.
