About Merellaan 34, Nieuwe Pekela
At €425,000, this is the most expensive home currently for sale in Nieuwe Pekela. The average asking price in the neighbourhood is €328,154, so this property is priced 30% above that. However, it also has a larger-than-average plot of 762 m² and is a detached house, which is a rare type in this area. Whether it is fair depends on how much you value the extra space and privacy.
Nieuwe Pekela is a non-urban village with a strong sense of community. One resident says it is a place where 'everyone knows everyone' and rates it a 7.38 out of 10. Most homes are owner-occupied single-family houses, and the population includes many families and older residents. It is quiet and safe, with 108 reported crimes in the area.
The nearest train station is 7.6 km away, so you would need a car or bus for rail connections. The area is not well served by public transport, which is typical for a village with a low urbanity score.
Two primary schools are within walking distance: CBS Groen van Prinsterer (about 550 m) and Kindcentrum De Linde (about 670 m). For secondary education, Dollard College Pekela is about 2.8 km away. There are also several other schools within 5 km.
The home has energy label C, which is average for a house built in 1978. It means the property is reasonably efficient but not top-of-the-line. You can expect moderate energy bills, but improvements like better insulation could lower them further.
However, the listing does not explicitly mention a garden, so you would need to confirm the exact outdoor layout with the agent.
