About Buinerweg 8-132, Ees
The asking price of €185,000 is on the keen side for a detached house in this part of Drenthe, especially given the 345 m² plot. However, the floor area is modest at 66 m², so it suits buyers who value outdoor space over interior square metres. Without comparable sales data for the neighbourhood, it's best to view the price as competitive for a rural home.
The home has energy label C, which is average for a house built in 1997. You can expect reasonable energy costs, but not the highest efficiency. Improvements like better insulation or solar panels could bring it up to a B or A, but that's entirely optional.
The nearest train station is 14.9 km away, so this home is not ideal for daily commuting by rail. You would rely on a car or bus for longer journeys. The rural setting means public transport is limited, but the peace and quiet make up for it.
The closest primary school is Daltonschool Ees, about 1.2 km away, with 51 pupils. Other options within 5 km include Montessorischool Borger and o.b.s. De Meander. For secondary education, Esdal College Locatie Borger is about 2.6 km away. All are within a short drive or bike ride.
The neighbourhood recorded 26 total crimes, which is low for a rural area. With only 75 residents and a very low address density, the area feels safe and quiet. Most homes are owner-occupied, adding to the stable community feel.
The plot measures 345 m², giving you a generous garden around the house. The exact layout is not described, but the size allows for outdoor seating, a lawn, or even a small vegetable patch. A park is also just 0.11 km away for additional green space.
Built in 1997, the house is nearly 30 years old but relatively modern. Energy label C suggests it has some insulation, but you may want to check the boiler and windows. The listing does not mention any recent renovations, so viewings will reveal the current state.
