Meije 28

The price is on the high side compared to other vrijstaande woningen in Bodegraven-Reeuwijk, but the large plot of 1690 m² and the rural location in Meije are unique selling points. The home has 227 m² of living space, a B energy label, and a classic 1927 character. Whether it is fair depends on how much you value the spacious plot and quiet surroundings.

Meije is a small hamlet with only 390 residents, almost all living in single-family homes. It is very rural (urbanity score 5) with a low density of 40 addresses per km². The population is mostly older, with many 45-plus households. There are few amenities in the hamlet itself, so you will need a car for shopping and schools.

The nearest train station is 5.7 km away, which is about a 10-minute drive. This station is in Bodegraven and offers connections to Gouda, Utrecht, and Leiden. For daily commuting, a car or bicycle to the station is practical.

The closest primary school is Basisschool Oranje Nassau at 2 km, followed by Da Costaschool at 2.4 km and IKC Schatrijk at 2.5 km. For secondary education, the nearest school is 9.7 km away, so older children will need to travel further.

The home has an energy label B, which is quite efficient for a house built in 1927. This means it has good insulation and likely double glazing, keeping heating costs manageable. You can expect lower energy bills compared to older homes with poorer labels.

The plot is 1690 m², which is very spacious. While the listing does not specify the garden layout, such a large plot typically offers plenty of outdoor space for gardening, recreation, or even a small annexe. You would need to view the property to see how the garden is arranged.
