About Breelaan 43, Bergen (Nh)
The asking price is €1,875,000 for a 232 m² detached home on an 809 m² plot. Compared to other detached houses in Bergen, this is on the high side, but the generous plot and central-yet-quiet location in Van Reenen justify a premium. Without comparable sales data for the immediate neighbourhood, it's best to view the price as reflecting the size and character of the property.
The energy label is E, which means the home is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a modern home. The house dates from 1922, so insulation and glazing may be original or partially upgraded. It's worth factoring in potential improvements if you want to reduce energy bills.
The nearest train station is 5.8 km away, so it's not within walking distance. You would need a bike, car or bus to reach it. The station itself is not named in the listing, but the distance means commuting by train requires some planning.
There are several schools within walking distance. The Protestant-Christian primary school Willem-Alexander is about 250 m away, and the Bosschool is around 500 m. For secondary education, Berger SGM is roughly 500 m, and other options like Vrije School Noord Holland and PCC Bergen are within a kilometre. So school runs are very manageable.
Albert Heijn is just 150 m away, so you can walk there in a couple of minutes. Aldi and Dekamarkt are also nearby at about 270 m and 290 m respectively. For daily groceries, you have several options on your doorstep.
