About De Hout 46, Hem
The asking price of €1,300,000 is on the high side compared to other detached homes in Drechterland. However, the plot of 4430 m² is exceptionally large for this area, which justifies the premium. Without comparable sales data in the immediate neighbourhood, it's hard to say exactly how it stacks up, but the combination of a spacious home and a huge garden is uncommon.
The home has an energy label C, which is average for a house built in 1934. This means it has some insulation and double glazing, but heating costs will be moderate. You can expect reasonable energy bills, though older homes often benefit from further improvements.
The nearest train station is 3.3 km away, which is about a 40-minute walk or a short bike ride. This makes commuting by train feasible but not immediate.
The closest primary school is Jozefschool, about 1.4 km away (a 15-minute walk). Other options include 't Padland (2.1 km) and Meester Spigtschool (2.5 km). For secondary education, the nearest school is 4.5 km away, so a bike or car is needed.
Yes, the area is very safe. In the most recent data, only 13 crimes were recorded in the entire neighbourhood, which is extremely low. The rural setting and small population contribute to a peaceful environment.
The plot measures 4430 m², which is a very large garden for a detached home. It offers plenty of space for outdoor activities, gardening, or even extending the house (subject to planning permission). The exact layout and features of the garden are not described in the listing.
