My experience is that it's very quiet in the neighbourhood and always cosy with all the neighbours. There are many young people in the area and there is also a secondary school. It's quite clean, everything is nearby and accessible by public transport, car or bike. The nature is also very beautiful and there is a nice forest here.

About Hendrik Westerstraat 204, Oude Pekela
The asking price of €295,000 is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €286,938, but this home has 225 m² of living space, which is 55% larger than the typical 145 m² in Oude Pekela. The price per m² works out to about €1,311, which is well below the neighbourhood average of €2,263 per m², so it represents good value for the space.
An F label indicates poor energy efficiency, so you can expect high heating and electricity bills. The home was built in 1958 and likely lacks modern insulation. In the neighbourhood, only 30% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is one of the less efficient properties. Budgeting for energy upgrades would be sensible.
Oude Pekela is quiet and family-friendly, with many young people and a secondary school nearby. Residents mention it's clean and cosy, with good neighbours. There are several primary schools within walking distance, and the area has a low crime rate (239 total offences). The mix of ages and the presence of parks make it suitable for families.
Aldi and Jumbo supermarkets are about 600 metres away, a five-minute walk. Primary schools CBS de 7-Sprong and Sint Willibrordusschool are 250 metres away, and secondary school Dollard College is 480 metres. A GP is 0.9 km away, and a park is 0.6 km. The train station is 5.4 km away, so a car or bike is needed for longer trips.
The average price for a detached home in Pekela is not specified, but the neighbourhood average for all homes is €286,938. This home is priced at €295,000, which is 2.8% above average. However, its 225 m² is 55% larger than the average 145 m², so the price per m² is much lower. Similar large homes may be rare, making this a distinctive option.
The nearest train station is 5.4 km away, so it's not within walking distance. However, residents note that public transport is accessible, likely via bus. The neighbourhood has a low address density (661 per km²), so a car is convenient. Cycling is also common in the area.
