About Meerhoek 27, Genderen
The price is on the high side compared to other detached homes in Altena, but this property is exceptional: 630 m² of floor space, a 1,500 m² plot, and a building from 1750. The historic character and generous size justify the premium, though you are paying for uniqueness rather than market average.
The home has energy label C. This means it is reasonably efficient, but not as efficient as modern homes. You can expect moderate energy costs, but given the size (630 m²), the total bill will still be significant. Label C is common for older homes that have been partially updated.
SPAR is just 105 metres away, so you can walk there in a minute. For more choice, Aldi is 1.7 km, and Coop and Jumbo are about 3.3 km. Daily groceries are very convenient, but for a full weekly shop you might drive a bit further.
The closest primary school is Protestant Christelijke Basisschool Het Fundament, 636 metres away. Basisschool Prins Willem Alexander is 2.6 km. For secondary education, the nearest school is 5.3 km away, so older children will need to travel further.
Genderen is a very rural village with a low population density (210 addresses per km²). It is quiet and green, with few facilities but plenty of space. The crime rate is low (23 total offences). If you value tranquillity and space, this is ideal.
The nearest train station is 17.3 km away, so commuting by train is not practical without a car. A car is almost essential for getting around.
