About Michielsreed 1, Boelenslaan
The asking price is 41% above the average asking price in Boelenslaan (€638,000) and is the highest of the three homes currently for sale. However, the plot is exceptionally large at 7,900 m², which is rare. The average price per m² in the neighbourhood is €4,055, so the price per m² here is about €6,514, well above average. Whether it is fair depends on how much you value the land.
The home has energy label B, which is good. It means the home is reasonably energy-efficient, with lower heating costs compared to older homes with labels D or lower. In the neighbourhood, one-third of homes have label A, one-third B, and one-third C, so this home is in line with the local standard.
The plot measures 7,900 m², which is very large for a detached house. It offers plenty of space for a garden, possibly a vegetable patch, or even keeping animals, depending on local regulations. The home itself has 138 m² of living space, so the land is the main feature here.
There are two primary schools within walking distance: De Wiksel at 342 m and Gearwurkingsskoalle de Wâldiik at 698 m. Both are small schools with fewer than 100 pupils. For secondary education, the nearest school is 4.1 km away, so a bike or car is needed.
The closest supermarket is Aldi at 2.8 km, followed by Jumbo and Lidl at about 3.1 km. There are six supermarkets within 5 km, so you have a reasonable choice, but a car is essential for grocery shopping.
