Quiet neighbourhood. There is no supermarket and only a very small primary school. The nearest secondary school is 6.5 km away. A bus runs every half hour to the station.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a quiet neighbourhood, there are few teenagers but the number of babies is rising. The municipality doesn't invest enough in proper decent opportunities for recreation or sports. Everything is done half-heartedly. The roads are good and it's easily accessible from the motorway. There is no primary or secondary school, the nearest primary school is 1km away and the secondary school 6km. There is a swimming pool but it's old and there were plans to demolish it, besides that there is a nice football field. I would like to see a nice playground and skate park, something that is really good. A completely new design and not just a new piece of equipment.

About Kloosterstraat 25, Holtum
The asking price of €389,000 is 32% above the neighbourhood average of €294,500. However, this home is also 40% larger than the typical home in Holtum (204 m² vs 146 m²) and sits on a spacious plot of 1485 m². The median price in the area is €289,000, and homes sold recently went for an average of €325,587. Given the size and plot, the price is on the high side but reflects the extra space.
The energy label is G, the lowest rating. This means the home is not energy-efficient and heating costs are likely to be high. In the neighbourhood, 60% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for an older property. You should budget for significant energy expenses.
The house was built in 1792, making it over 230 years old. The listing does not provide details on the condition, but the energy label G suggests that insulation and heating systems may be outdated. A structural survey would be advisable to assess the actual state of the property.
