About Kerkstraat 24, Vollenhove
The asking price of €394,000 is close to the neighbourhood average of €404,500 for sold homes. Given that the living area (251 m²) is 42% larger than the typical 177 m² in the area, the price per square metre works out at about €1,570, well below the neighbourhood average of €2,714 per m². So it represents good value for the space.
The home has energy label D. This is a mid-range label, meaning the property is not particularly energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a modern home. In the neighbourhood, half of the homes have label C and half have label D or lower, so this is fairly typical for the area.
The nearest train station is 20.4 km away, so this is not a location for daily commuting by rail. You would rely on a car or bus for longer journeys.
Based on one neighbourhood review, residents describe the atmosphere as friendly but not very connected. The quote is: "Everyone is friendly to each other but there is nothing that connects them." So you can expect polite neighbours, but community events may be limited.
At the time of writing, there are only two homes for sale in the neighbourhood, with prices ranging from €385,000 to €424,000. This limited supply means that similar properties don't come up often.
There are two primary schools within walking distance: Openbare Dalton Basisschool De Voorpoort (342 m) and Rooms Katholieke Basisschool Sint Martinus (439 m). For secondary education, the nearest school is 10.6 km away, so older children would need to travel further.
