The asking price of €689,000 is above the neighbourhood average of €624,200 and the median of €552,000. However, detached houses in Berkum can go up to €1,250,000. The average price per square metre in the neighbourhood is €4,503, which for 126 m² would come to about €567,000. So the price is on the high side, but not out of line with the top end of the market.

The home has an energy label D. This is less efficient than most homes currently for sale in Berkum, where over 70% have labels A, B or C. A D label means higher energy costs for heating and electricity compared to more modern homes. You can expect to spend more on utilities than in a better-insulated property.

The train station is 4.6 km from the home. That is about a 10-minute drive or a 15-20 minute bike ride. There is no direct bus connection mentioned, so a car or bicycle is the most practical way to reach the station.

There are two primary schools within a few minutes' walk: obs De Campherbeek at 215 metres and CBS De Duyvencamp at 278 metres. For secondary education, Thorbecke Scholengemeenschap is about 1 km away, and there are several other options within 2 km.

The nearest supermarket is Coop at 245 metres, just around the corner. Other supermarkets within a short drive include SPAR (1.8 km), Jumbo (2.1 km), PLUS (2.2 km) and Aldi (2.2 km). So daily shopping is very convenient.

The plot is 426 m², which is generous for a detached house in this area. The garden is not described in the listing, but the size suggests there is outdoor space. You could potentially extend the home or add a garden room, subject to planning permission.
