Borger-Centrum, Borger-Odoorn
NeighbourhoodThis detached house on Hoofdstraat sits right in the heart of Borger, with a generous plot that gives you plenty of outdoor space. At €475,000, the asking price is 22% above the neighbourhood average of €389,833, so it's on the high side compared to other homes in the area. Detached houses like this are relatively rare in Borger-Odoorn, which partly explains the premium.
Borger-Centrum is a compact village centre with around 1,065 residents. It's a place where older people are well represented, nearly half the population is 65 or over, and many households are singles. The streets are quiet, and daily life revolves around the local shops and services. There are no resident reviews available for this neighbourhood, so the picture here is based purely on the statistics.
Your daily shopping is easy: Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and Boni and Aldi are a couple of streets away. For school runs, Montessorischool Borger and o.b.s. De Meander are both a five-minute walk, while Esdal College Locatie Borger is even closer. The village also has a GP practice, a restaurant and a library within walking distance, so most essentials are covered without needing a car.

About Hoofdstraat 90, Borger
The asking price of €475,000 is 22% above the average asking price in Borger-Centrum, which is €389,833. The three homes currently for sale in the neighbourhood range from €335,000 to €495,000, so this one sits near the top end. The large plot of 880 m² is a key factor that sets it apart from other properties in the area.
The home has energy label C. That means it's reasonably efficient but not top-of-the-range. You can expect moderate energy costs, though improvements like better insulation or solar panels could bring the label up and reduce bills further.
The nearest train station is 17.5 km away, so this is not a home for daily commuting by rail. You would rely on a car or bus for longer journeys.
There are several primary schools within walking distance: Montessorischool Borger (386 m), o.b.s. De Meander (386 m) and C.K.C. De Borgh (416 m). For secondary education, Esdal College Locatie Borger is just 335 m away.
Currently there are three homes for sale in the neighbourhood, including this one. That's a very limited supply, so options are scarce. The average time on market for sold homes is 92 days, which suggests a fairly balanced market.
The plot measures 880 m², which is unusually large for a detached house in this area. It gives you plenty of garden space, room for extensions or a workshop, and privacy compared to smaller plots.
Yes, with an urbanity level of 4 (on a scale where 1 is very urban and 5 is rural), it's a quiet village setting. The population is older and the streets are calm, so it's a peaceful place to live.
