About Amersfoortsestraat 78, Soesterberg
The asking price is 212% above the neighbourhood average of €744,532, but this home is exceptional: 379 m² of living space on a 1.5-hectare plot, with an A+ energy label. The average price per m² in Leusderheide is €4,369, so this home's per-m² price is about €6,135, a premium for its size and efficiency. Given the unique character and land, the price is on the high side but reflects what is on offer.
With 379 m² of floor area, this home is 115% larger than the neighbourhood average of 176 m². The plot of 14,972 m² is also far beyond typical plots in Leusderheide, which are usually much smaller. This is one of the largest properties available in the area.
The home has an A+ energy label, which is very efficient. In Leusderheide, 0% of current listings have A+, and only 23% have A. This means heating costs will be relatively low, and the home is well-insulated. The label is a strong selling point for a 1926 property.
The nearest train station is 4.8 km away. This is a rural area, so a car or bicycle is needed for public transport connections. The distance is typical for this part of Soesterberg.
Leusderheide has 55 households with children out of 180 total, so about 30% of families have kids. There are primary schools within 2,3 km, and the area is very safe with low crime. The large gardens and quiet streets are appealing for children, but amenities are spread out.
Sold homes in Leusderheide took an average of 34 days to sell, with an average sold price of €551,375. This home is priced much higher, so it may take longer to find the right buyer. The market is not particularly fast-moving for this price range.
A restaurant is 0.6 km away, so a short walk. The nearest supermarket (PLUS) is 1.9 km, which is a 20-minute walk or a quick drive. For daily shopping, a car is convenient, but the restaurant is easily reachable on foot.
