Unfortunately, more and more shops are disappearing and being replaced by eateries. Since a gym opened here, it attracts a lot of riffraff; the gym is open 24/7. Lots of fast-riding fatbikes, even in the pedestrian area. The municipality is very green and there is a nice walking park.

About Langeleegte 161, Veendam
With 140 m² of living space and a 720 m² plot, the price is in line with what you'd expect for a detached home in Veendam. The house is from 1930 and has energy label D, so you may want to factor in some modernisation. There's no neighbourhood market data to compare directly, but the asking price reflects the size and location.
Veendam-Centrum scores 8.4 out of 10 from four reviews. Residents mention plenty of greenery, beautiful buildings and friendly neighbours. Some note that shops are being replaced by eateries and that a 24/7 gym attracts some noise. The area has a mix of ages, with many older residents and singles.
The nearest train station is 2.2 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short cycle ride. That makes it feasible to commute by train, though you'd likely want a bike or car for the last bit.
Primary school De Braskörf is about 1.4 km away, and secondary school Winkler Prins is around 1.3 km. Both are within a 15-minute walk, so children can get to school on foot or by bike.
The plot is 720 m², which is unusually large for a detached house in this area. That gives you plenty of room for a garden, patio or even a vegetable patch. The exact layout of the garden is not described in the listing.
Energy label D is average for a house from 1930. It means the home is reasonably efficient but not as good as modern standards. You can expect moderate heating costs, and there is room for improvement with insulation or a more efficient heating system.
