Ens-woonkern, Noordoostpolder
NeighbourhoodThis detached house on Lichtwachter 15 sits in a quiet part of Ens, a village in the Noordoostpolder. With 149 m² of living space and a 652 m² plot, there is plenty of room for a family.

The asking price of €475,000 is above the neighbourhood average of €436,864 and the median of €329,500. However, this is a detached house with 149 m² and a large plot, which typically commands a premium. The average price per m² in the neighbourhood is €2,994, so at €3,188 per m², it is slightly above average but in line with the quality and size of the home.
The home has an energy label B, which means it is reasonably energy-efficient. You can expect lower heating costs compared to older homes with labels D or lower. In the neighbourhood, most homes have label A (46%) or B (39%), so this is in line with the local standard.
The nearest train station is 12.1 km away, so it is not within walking distance. You would need a car or bus to reach it. The village itself is car-dependent for longer journeys.
There are three primary schools within a short walk: De Regenboog (567 m), CBS Het Lichtschip (571 m), and Katholieke Basisschool De Horizon (878 m). For secondary education, the nearest school is 10.6 km away, so a daily commute is required.
Ens-woonkern is very family-friendly, with 330 households with children and a high proportion of single-family homes (92%). The area is quiet and safe, with only 22 crimes reported. There are playgrounds and a park within walking distance.
The plot is 652 m², which is generous for a detached house. The listing does not specify a garden, but the size suggests there is outdoor space.
In the neighbourhood, sold homes took an average of 38 days to sell, which is fairly typical. The market is not exceptionally fast or slow, so you have some time to consider.

How residents experience their municipality
Wij wonen hier met veel plezier, er is veel sociaal contact met een prettige sfeer. Er is goed contact tussen de buren voor wie daar behoefte aan heeft. Een ander groot pluspunt zijn de parkjes in de buurt, het is erg mooi om daar doorheen te wandelen. Er zijn veel voorzieningen dichtbij, scholen, supermarkten en andere dagelijkse voorzieningen. Soms ligt er wat papier o.i.d. van de kliko's waardoor hygiëne geen 10 krijgt, maar daar letten buurtbewoners ook op en dat gooien ze dan netjes weg.
