Frequently asked questions
About Burgemeester Sweensplein 26, Rijen
Was €629,000 a fair price for this detached house?
The asking price of €629,000 was above the neighbourhood average of €579,333 and the median of €595,000. However, the home has an A energy label and a large plot of 358 m², which are strong selling points. The price per m² was not directly comparable because the floor area was smaller than average. Given the current market with only three homes for sale, it was on the high side but not unreasonable.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is A, which is the second-best label on the scale. The label is an official registration from EP-Online and reflects the overall energy performance of the property.
How far is the nearest train station?
The nearest train station is 1.6 km away, which is about a ten-minute walk. This makes it convenient for commuting or travelling to nearby cities.

What supermarkets are close by?
Aldi is just 271 m away, so it is on your doorstep. Albert Heijn and Jumbo are both 533 m away, and Lidl is 565 m. That gives you several options for daily groceries within a short walk.
