About Kerkendelweg 11, Kootwijk
The asking price of €825,000 is on the high side for a detached house in Barneveld, especially given the F energy label and the modest 110 m² living area. However, the plot of 895 m² is unusually large, which adds significant value. Without comparable sales data for Kootwijk itself, it is hard to say exactly how the price relates to the local market.
An F label indicates poor energy efficiency, so you can expect high heating costs. The house was built in 1962 and likely has limited insulation. You would need to invest in improvements such as cavity wall insulation, double glazing or a new heating system to bring the label up. No exact running costs are stated in the listing.
The plot measures 895 m², which is very generous. Whether this is laid out as a garden, lawn or partly wooded is not described in the listing. The house is in a rural area, so there is plenty of outdoor space around.
