De Baan, Loon op Zand
This detached house from 1895 on Dreefseweg in Kaatsheuvel has a story to tell. With 92 m² of living space and a 340 m² plot, it is compact but full of character.

At €325,000, the asking price is 74% below the neighbourhood average of €1,249,167, making it the cheapest of the six homes currently for sale in De Baan. That is a keen price, especially compared to other detached houses in Loon op Zand.

About Dreefseweg 42, Kaatsheuvel
The asking price of €325,000 is 74% below the average asking price in De Baan (€1,249,167) and the cheapest of the six homes currently for sale. However, the house is smaller (92 m²) and much older (1895) than most in the neighbourhood, where the average floor area is 310 m². The energy label G also means higher running costs. So while the price is low, it reflects the home's size, age and energy performance.
Energy label G is the least efficient rating, so you can expect high heating and electricity costs. The home was built in 1895 and likely has poor insulation. In the neighbourhood, 50% of homes have label A+ and only 33% have label D or lower, so this house is an outlier. You should budget for significant energy expenses or consider investing in improvements.
De Baan is a quiet, residential area with mostly single-family homes and a high owner-occupancy rate (87%). It has a village atmosphere, with many families and older residents. The address density is low (701 addresses per km²), so it is not crowded. There are no resident reviews available, but the data suggests a peaceful, family-friendly environment.
The nearest primary school is RK Basisschool De Kinderboom, 754 m away (about a 10-minute walk). Openbare Basisschool Den Bussel is 1 km away, and RK Basisschool De BERK is 1.1 km. For secondary education, Van Haestrecht College is 1.7 km away. All are within walking or cycling distance.
The closest supermarket is Lidl, 1.9 km away (about a 20-minute walk or 5-minute cycle). Aldi and Albert Heijn are around 2 km away, and Jumbo is 2.1 km. For daily shopping, you will need a bike or car, as the nearest shops are not within easy walking distance.
The nearest train station is 13.3 km away, so public transport by rail is not convenient. You would need to drive or take a bus to reach a station. The neighbourhood has a low urbanity level (4 out of 5), so a car is almost essential for longer journeys.
The house was built in 1895, making it one of the oldest in De Baan (33% of homes were built before 1945). The listing does not mention any renovations, so you should assume it needs updating. The energy label G also suggests the property is not modernised. A thorough inspection is recommended to assess the structural and systems condition.
The plot size is 340 m², which typically includes outdoor space, but the listing does not explicitly mention a garden.
