About De Skeakel 5, Beetsterzwaag
The asking price of €600,000 is significantly above the average sale price of €331,667 for homes sold recently in Beetsterzwaag-Skeakel. However, those sales were likely for smaller or different property types. Given that this is a detached house with 138 m² and a 459 m² plot, the price reflects its size and type. It's on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average, but not necessarily out of line for a detached home in this area.
The energy label is D. This means the home is moderately energy-efficient. You can expect higher energy costs compared to a home with label A or B, but it's not the worst. The neighbourhood has no homes with label A or better; most sold homes here have label B or C. So label D is a bit below the local average, but still common for a house built in 1966.
The nearest train station is 18.6 km away. That's quite a distance, so you'll likely need a car or bus for train travel. The station is not named in the listing, but it's probably in a nearby town like Heerenveen or Leeuwarden.
The closest primary school is Kindcentrum De Finne, just 361 metres away, a short walk. There's also a special secondary school, School Lyndensteyn, at 470 metres. For regular secondary education, the nearest school is 6.5 km away, so older children may need to travel further.
