About Het Zuid 16, Drachten
The asking price of €695,000 is on the high side compared to other vrijstaande woningen in Smallingerland. However, the large plot of 1,520 m² is a key feature that may justify the price. There are no recent sale prices in the neighbourhood to compare directly.
The energy label is G, the lowest rating. This means the home is not energy-efficient and you can expect high heating costs. The home was built in 1920 and likely has poor insulation. Improvements such as insulation, double glazing or a new heating system could significantly reduce energy bills.
The plot measures 1,520 m², which is very spacious. It offers plenty of room for a garden, outdoor activities, or even extending the home (subject to planning permission). The exact layout and condition of the garden are not described in the listing.
