About Kapelstraat 22, Ophemert
The asking price of €749,000 is in line with the market for a detached home of this size in Ophemert. With 172 m² of living space and a 228 m² plot, you get a substantial property. The E energy label means higher energy costs, which is reflected in the price. There are no recent comparable sales in the immediate area to benchmark against, but the price seems reasonable for the village.
The home has an energy label E, which is below average for a detached house. This means you can expect higher heating bills and the property may need insulation upgrades. The neighbourhood has a mix of labels, but this home's label is not particularly efficient. It's worth factoring in potential improvements.
The nearest train station is 5.1 km away, which is about a 10-minute drive or a 20-minute bike ride. This makes commuting by train possible but not as convenient as living closer to a station. The village itself is car-dependent for most trips.
The closest primary school is Prins Willem Alexanderschool, just 350 metres away, an easy walk. Other primary schools within 3 km include De Bataaf and IKC Prins Maurits. For secondary education, the nearest school is 5.7 km away, so older children will need to travel further.
Ophemert is a quiet, rural village with a strong community feel. Most homes are owner-occupied single-family houses, and the population includes a mix of ages, with many families and older residents. The area is safe, with only 20 crimes reported in the latest data. One resident describes it as 'beautiful here, living so close to nature' but notes that you need a car or bike for groceries and entertainment.
The nearest supermarket is Albert Heijn at 2.8 km, followed by Jumbo at 3.4 km. For daily shopping, you'll need a bike or car. There's a restaurant just 0.6 km away, and a library at 6.5 km. The village itself has limited amenities, so most errands require transport.
