About Dorpsstraat 1, Bakel
The asking price is 105% above the neighbourhood average of €678,136, but this home is exceptional: 552 m² of living space on a 2,080 m² plot, built in 1818. The average price per m² in Bakel is €3,184, so this home's price per m² is around €2,516, which is actually below the neighbourhood average. Given its size and character, the price is in line with what you'd expect for a property of this stature.
The home has energy label C. This means it has reasonable insulation and energy efficiency, but not the highest standards. You can expect moderate energy costs. In the neighbourhood, 27.3% of homes have label A, 31.8% label B, and 22.7% label C, so this home is around the middle of the pack.
Public transport is limited. The nearest train station is 6.5 km away, and bus services are infrequent. One resident notes that there is only one bus per hour, which is often full in the mornings, and the neighbourhood bus to Gemert is unreliable. A car is almost essential for getting around.
There are two primary schools within walking distance: De Kleine Kapitein (144 m) and Kindcentrum De Bakelaar (225 m). For secondary education, the nearest school is 6.1 km away, so you would need to travel further afield.
