About Kerkpad 26, Dwingeloo
The asking price is €659,000 for a 121 m² detached house with a 524 m² plot. Compared to other homes in Dwingeloo, this is on the high side, partly because of the large plot and the property's character. The energy label G means higher running costs, which may affect the overall value. Without specific market data for the neighbourhood, it is best to compare with similar homes in the area.
Energy label G is the lowest rating, indicating poor insulation and high energy consumption. For a house built in 1920, this is not unusual. You can expect significant heating costs, especially in winter. Improvements such as insulation, double glazing or a modern heating system could improve the label and reduce bills, but the current label is a clear cost factor.
The nearest train station is 12.3 km away, which is about a 15-minute drive. Dwingeloo is not connected by rail, so a car or bus is needed for train travel.
