Meije, Bodegraven-Reeuwijk
NeighbourhoodThis detached house on the Meije dates from 1703, making it one of the oldest homes in the area. With 83 m² of living space on a 427 m² plot, it is compact but full of character. The energy label G means heating costs will be significant, something to factor in. At €750,000, the price is on the high side compared to other detached houses in Bodegraven-Reeuwijk in the municipality.
Meije is a tiny hamlet with only 390 residents, so it is very quiet. Most homes are owner-occupied (85%) and nearly all are single-family houses (95%). The population is older, with many residents aged 45 and over. There are no neighbourhood reviews available for this area, so you would need to visit to get a feel for the community.
For daily shopping, the nearest supermarket is the Coop, about three kilometres away, a short drive. There is a primary school just 310 metres from the house, the Rooms Katholieke Basisschool Miland, which is very small with only five pupils. For secondary education, the closest option is Ashram College in Nieuwkoop, about 3.5 km away. The municipality Bodegraven-Reeuwijk is a rural area, so a car is essential for most errands.
At the time of writing the home is listed only via WLTM.

About Meije 125, Bodegraven
The price is on the high side compared to other detached homes in Bodegraven-Reeuwijk, but the historic character and large plot (427 m²) are unique. The small floor area (83 m²) and poor energy label G mean you will have higher running costs, so it is worth considering whether the location and charm justify the premium.
The energy label is G, the lowest rating. This means the home is not energy-efficient, so you can expect high heating and electricity bills. The house dates from 1703, so insulation and glazing are likely minimal. Budget for potential upgrades if you want to improve efficiency.
The nearest train station is 5.7 km away, so about a 10-minute drive or a longer cycle.
The closest primary school is Rooms Katholieke Basisschool Miland, just 310 metres away, a short walk. For secondary education, Ashram College in Nieuwkoop is about 3.5 km away. Other primary schools are further, around 4 km.
Meije is a very small hamlet with only 390 residents and very few reported crimes (2 in total). It is a quiet, rural area where most people know each other. The low population density (40 addresses per km²) means it is not urban at all.
The plot is 427 m², which is generous for a house of this size. It offers outdoor space, but the listing does not specify a garden, terrace, or other features. You would need to view the property to see how the land is laid out.
