Hoofdstraat 267

The price is on the high side compared to other detached homes in Westerkwartier, but the plot of 12,828 m² is exceptional for this area. The 374 m² of living space, historic character, and energy label B add to the value. Whether it's fair depends on how much you value the land and the rural setting.

The home has energy label B, which is good for a house built in 1903. It means the property is reasonably energy-efficient, so you can expect moderate heating costs. You won't face the high bills associated with older, uninsulated homes.

The plot measures 12,828 m², over a hectare. That's plenty of space for a large garden, perhaps a vegetable patch, a workshop, or even a small paddock. The possibilities are vast, but you would need to check local planning rules for any major changes.

Buitengebied-Oostwold is a tiny rural hamlet with only about 105 residents. It's very quiet, with hardly any traffic or noise. Most homes are owner-occupied, and the population is a mix of families and older couples. There are no shops or amenities within walking distance, so a car is essential.

The nearest train station is 7.9 km away. That's about a 10-minute drive. It's not within walking or cycling distance for most people, so you'll rely on a car or bus for public transport connections.

The nearest primary school, Basisschool Rehoboth, is about 2.7 km away, a short drive or bike ride. There are several other primary schools within 5 km. For secondary education, the closest school is 7 km away, so older children will need transport.
