NeighbourhoodThis detached house on Havelter Schapendrift sits in the heart of Havelte, a village surrounded by nature. With 238 m² of living space on a 698 m² plot, it offers plenty of room for a family. The asking price of €849,500 is 32% above the average in the neighbourhood, reflecting the larger-than-average floor area and the detached character. For comparison, detached houses in Westerveld give an idea of what's available in the municipality.
Havelte is a small village where residents have contrasting experiences. One resident describes it as a "quiet space nature" with a "good atmosphere" and "really nice to live." Another calls it a "lovely little village" where "everyone knows everyone" and amenities like school, shops and swimming pool are within walking distance. However, a third review paints a very different picture, speaking of a "petty working-class neighbourhood" with gossip, bullying and a closed culture. Based on three reviews, the average score is 6.21 out of 10. The neighbourhood has 3,225 inhabitants, with a mix of ages and a high proportion of single-person households. For more on the area, see Havelte.
For your daily shopping, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, about a five-minute walk away. There are two primary schools within a couple of streets: OBS De Bosrank is a five-minute walk, and Oosterveldschool is a bit further. The village also has a GP practice, a restaurant and a library within walking distance. For secondary education, you'd need to travel about 8.9 km. The nearest train station is 9.5 km away, so a car is handy. The municipality of Westerveld oversees the area.

Nice neighbourhood with diverse ages. Good atmosphere, quiet, next to nature. Really nice to live
Auto-translated to English by AIA lovely little village to live in, everyone knows everyone culture. School, shops and swimming pool within walking distance.
Auto-translated to English by AIPetty working-class neighbourhood, full of gossip and intrigue. Bullying culture. Excluding those who think differently. If you're an outsider, not 'working-class' enough, if your social position is very low, you're a target. Harsh, somewhat hateful culture. Two groups: the golf club elite and the Boer and Burger supporters. I belong to neither and therefore find no connection. I find the alcohol consumption and the frequent violence striking. Things that are overlooked. Their own customs, own rules, own laws. A self-contained community cut off from the rest of the country. They only respect rules if they can use them to muzzle people they don't like. And those rules never apply to them. A very strange culture. After 11 years, I still marvel at it every day. The municipality only stands up for its own kind. Very authoritarian, biased and corrupt. Corrupt: cronyism and conflicts of interest. Building one-sided dossiers against people they don't like. As for nature: everything is being demolished, for the past 10 years. The forests have been thinned out, stripped for financial gain. Facilities: without a car you're far from everything and the bus sometimes doesn't run at all. So you stand at the bus stop for an hour waiting for the next one. I sometimes think of Pommetje Horlepiep here.
