About Kooijdijk 5, Westbroek
The price is on the high side compared to other detached homes in De Bilt, but the 11,400 m² plot is exceptional. Without comparable sales data for the immediate neighbourhood, it's hard to say exactly how it stacks up. The large plot and rural setting are unique features that justify a premium.
The home has an energy label F, which is quite inefficient. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a modern home. The house was built in 1934, so insulation and heating systems may be outdated. It's worth factoring in potential upgrades if you want to improve efficiency.
The plot measures 11,400 m², which is very large for a detached home. It offers plenty of space for gardening, outdoor activities, or even extending the house (subject to planning permission). The exact layout and condition of the garden are not described in the listing.
