Gieten, Aa en Hunze
NeighbourhoodThis detached house on the Brink in Gieten is a real statement. With 753 m² of living space on a 1957 m² plot, it is exceptionally spacious. The asking price of €1,250,000 is well above the neighbourhood average of €626,036, making it the most expensive of the 14 homes currently for sale in Gieten. For context, detached houses in Aa en Hunze tend to be larger and pricier, but this one is in a league of its own.
Gieten is a village with two faces, based on two reviews. One resident describes it as "super cosy" with a neighbourhood watch and friendly neighbours. The other paints a different picture: "safety in Gieten is very poor, many young people are very antisocial. I don't dare go out alone (as a girl) in the evening/night." The community is unsociable, they say, with arguments breaking out quickly. The village has few facilities for young people. The municipality Aa en Hunze covers a rural area, and Gieten itself has a low urban density (516 addresses per km²). Most homes are owner-occupied (67%) and single-family (91%). The population is older, with 31% aged 65 or over.
For your daily shopping, Jumbo is just around the corner and Lidl is a couple of streets away. There are two primary schools within a ten-minute walk: Kindcentrum De Marke and Bonnerschool. Secondary education is at Dr. Nassau College, also a short walk away. The nearest train station is 15 km away, so a car is essential for longer journeys.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including Wildveen, Funda and Huispedia.

I think safety in Gieten is very poor, many young people are very antisocial. I don't dare go out alone (as a girl) in the evening/night. The community is unsociable, arguments break out quickly and the youngsters are terribly antisocial. There are hardly any facilities, there is nothing for young people to do. There are a few shops and 1 snack bar & 2 pizzerias. Accessibility is fine in itself, you can easily get to public transport by bus. By car it's even easier. Education is very extensive for 1 village. There are 2 primary schools, 2 childcare centres and 1 secondary school.

The home has energy label C. This is a reasonable rating, meaning the home is moderately energy-efficient. You can expect average heating costs. In the neighbourhood, 42.9% of homes have label A, 7.1% label B, 35.7% label C, and 14.3% label D or lower.
The home was built in 1900, so it is over a century old. With a property of this age, you can expect character features but also potential maintenance needs. The energy label C suggests some modernisation has been done, but it is always wise to check the specific condition of the roof, windows and installations.
