Houtwal 8

The asking price of €735,000 is 41% above the average asking price in Didam-Noord, which is €522,853. However, this is a detached home on a large plot, and such properties are rare in the neighbourhood. The average price per m² in the area is €3,505, so for 142 m² that would come to about €497,710, but the large plot and detached nature justify a premium. Whether it's fair depends on how much you value the extra space and privacy.

Didam-Noord is described by a resident as 'a great neighbourhood for families with young children'. There are several primary schools within walking distance, and the area has many family households. However, the same resident notes that for older children, there is very little to do in the village itself. The neighbourhood is quiet and safe, with a moderate urban density.

The nearest supermarket is Albert Heijn, just 381 metres away, about a five-minute walk. Aldi is 742 metres away, and PLUS is 987 metres. So daily groceries are very convenient.

The home has energy label B, which is above average for the neighbourhood. In Didam-Noord, 41.2% of homes have label B and another 41.2% have label C. Label B means the home is reasonably energy-efficient, so heating costs should be moderate compared to older homes with lower labels.

The nearest train station is 1.5 km away, which is about a 15-minute walk or a short cycle. This makes it easy to reach nearby cities without a car.

There are several primary schools within walking distance: Basisschool Albert Schweitzer (401 m), Kindcentrum de Ontdekking (495 m), and Daltonbasisschool Sint Jozef (936 m). For secondary education, the nearest school is 1.7 km away, about a 20-minute walk.
