Drachten centrum, Smallingerland
NeighbourhoodThis detached house on Bruinsslotstraat sits right in the centre of Drachten, where the streets are lively and everything is close by. With 110 m² of living space on a 459 m² plot, it's a compact home with a generous garden, a rare combination in a central location. The energy label G means heating costs will be high, something to factor in. At €325,000, the asking price is 28% below the neighbourhood average of €448,654, which makes it a keen option compared to other detached houses in Smallingerland.

People almost always greet each other here. Lots of children playing nicely outside on the street! That gives a familiar and safe feeling. So a solid pass for safety and community! And the streets always look tidy too, so I think hygiene is also more than adequate! Shops, schools and other facilities all within walking/cycling distance and easily accessible, so also a solid pass for education, housing, facilities and accessibility. Green space is a bit less, but sufficient. Because we live in the city centre, there is less greenery. There are trees and a few small parks here, but I come from the countryside myself, so this is very different. But I think it's sufficient! It's just lovely living in our neighbourhood!

About Bruinsslotstraat 56, Drachten
The asking price of €325,000 is 28% below the average asking price in Drachten centrum (€448,654) and also below the median of €420,000. However, the home is smaller than average (110 m² vs 150 m²) and has an energy label G, which means higher energy costs. Given these factors, the price is on the low side compared to other homes in the neighbourhood.
The energy label is G, the lowest rating. This means the home is not energy-efficient and you can expect high heating and electricity bills. In the neighbourhood, only 23.1% of homes have a label D or lower, so this property is less efficient than most. Renovations like insulation or solar panels could improve the label and reduce costs.
The plot is 459 m², which is generous for a home in the city centre. The listing does not specify a garden, but the plot size suggests there is outdoor space.
