The train station is also just around the corner, making it easy to get to Utrecht or Amersfoort. The village centre has a restaurant and a library within a couple of streets away.

About Kapelweg 69, Maarn
The asking price is 50% above the average asking price in Maarn-Dorp (€631,250) and is the highest of the 12 homes currently for sale. However, this home is also 47% larger than the average (189 m² vs 129 m²) and is a detached house on a 507 m² plot, which is rare in the neighbourhood. Whether it is fair depends on how much you value space and privacy.
Energy label G is the lowest rating, so the home is not energy-efficient. You can expect high heating and electricity bills. The neighbourhood has 38.5% of homes with label D or lower, so this is not unusual for an older home (built in 1960). You may want to budget for improvements like insulation or solar panels.
