About Dorpsstraat 53, Den Horn
The asking price of €359,000 is in line with the market for detached homes in Westerkwartier. The house has 124 m² of living space and a 437 m² plot, which is generous. However, the F energy label means higher energy costs, so factor that into your budget.
The energy label is F, which is poor. This means the home is not well insulated and will have high heating costs. You may want to consider improvements like insulation or double glazing, but the listing does not state what is already present.
