Frequently asked questions
About Boekel 19, Akersloot
Was €1,350 a fair rent for this detached house?
Detached houses were relatively scarce in the rental market here, so the price reflected the size and the exceptional outdoor space. The energy label E meant heating costs were likely to be higher than in a more efficient home.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is E, which is an official registration from EP-Online. The label does not say anything about the condition of the building itself; it is simply a measure of how energy-efficient the home is as a whole.
How big is the plot and what can I use it for?
The plot measures 5,510 m², which is exceptionally large for a rental property. This gives you plenty of outdoor space, whether you want a garden, room for children to play, or simply space to enjoy the outdoors. The exact layout and condition of the garden were not described in the listing, but the size alone was a standout feature.
