Lith, Oss
NeighbourhoodThis is a home with presence. A detached house from 1870, right on the Marktplein in Lith, with 377 m² of living space and a plot of 1,534 m². The price of €1,300,000 is on the high side, 73% above the neighbourhood average of €751,413, but you are buying a property that is both the largest and the most expensive currently for sale in Lith. For context, the average price per m² in the neighbourhood is €3,703, so this home commands a premium for its size and character. If you are looking at detached houses in Oss, this one stands out.
Lith is a small village with about 3,100 residents, and the four reviews on paint a mixed picture. One resident describes it as a "minimal neighbourhood", not social, with little for children and only one shop. Another says: "The neighbourhood is friendly, helpful and caring. The children can play outside nicely." A third review speaks of togetherness: "we look out for each other, we dare to ask each other for help, and we have an annual street BBQ." But the same resident notes there is little for young children to do. So Lith seems to suit those who value peace and community, but families with young children may find it quiet. The village has a low urbanity score (5, not urban), with 357 addresses per km². Most homes are owner-occupied (73%) and single-family (93%). For more on the area, see municipality Oss.
Your daily errands are easy: the PLUS supermarket is just around the corner, and a restaurant and a park are within a five-minute walk. For primary school, RK Basisschool De Meander is on your doorstep. There are two other primary schools within a couple of kilometres. Secondary school is further away, so older children will need to travel. The nearest train station is 9.1 km away, so a car or bus is essential for commuting.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including and Funda. The asking price is €1,300,000.

Not social, no thought given to children who go to school elsewhere because all activities go through the school. Only 1 shop in the neighbourhood. People drive too fast in the neighbourhood. So I find it very unpleasant and unsafe.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood is friendly, helpful and caring. The children can play outside nicely. The house is currently in poor condition but a renovation will follow in early 2025.
Auto-translated to English by AII'm mainly talking about our street and the area around it. About that I can say that we fortunately still look out for each other, that we dare to ask each other for help, and that we have an annual street BBQ to promote and/or strengthen togetherness. However, there is little for young children to do, which is a shame, because we all have our (grand)children and in the neighbourhood they can hardly let off steam. For the elderly, it's a wonderful neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AIBeautiful quiet village. You do have to be sociable yourself to be fully accepted. Recently a new housing estate was added. But the old Lith remains truly Lith. Nice cycling/walking area. Lovely and quiet. 1 supermarket, unfortunately often on the pricey side. 1 bakery, lovely but expensive. Public transport is available but not very frequent. Close to the cities of Oss and Den Bosch is also within reach.

About Marktplein 17, Lith
The asking price is 73% above the neighbourhood average of €751,413, and it is the most expensive of the 23 homes currently for sale in Lith. However, with 377 m² of living space on a 1,534 m² plot, it is also by far the largest. The average price per m² in Lith is €3,703, so the premium reflects the size and the detached character. Whether it is fair depends on how much you value space and a historic home.
The energy label is C. That is decent for a home built in 1870, many older homes have labels D or lower. In Lith, 43.5% of homes have label A, 30.4% label B, and 8.7% label C, so this home is in the middle of the pack. You can expect reasonable energy costs, but not the efficiency of a modern home.
Mixed. One resident says children can play outside nicely, but another notes there is little for young children to do and that activities go through the school, which is a problem if children go elsewhere. There is a primary school on your doorstep, but secondary school is 8.7 km away. The village has a low urbanity level, so it is quiet, but families may find it lacking in amenities.
The PLUS supermarket is 145 m away, so daily groceries are very convenient. There is also a restaurant 0.6 km away and a park 0.5 km away. For other supermarkets, the nearest Jumbo is 4.6 km away. Lith has only one shop according to residents, so for a wider selection you would need to travel to Oss or elsewhere.
The house was built in 1870, making it one of the older homes in Lith (25% of homes in the neighbourhood were built before 1945). The listing does not mention the condition, but one resident review notes that a house in the neighbourhood is in poor condition with a renovation planned for early 2025, that may or may not refer to this property. You would need to inspect it yourself.
The plot is 1,534 m², which is very large. However, the listing does not explicitly state whether there is a garden, terrace, or other outdoor space.
The nearest train station is 9.1 km away. That is a significant distance, so a car or bus is necessary for train travel.
