About Middenweg 60, Echten
Given the 108 m² floor area and the large plot of 1185 m², the price is in line with the market. The home is old (1910) and has an energy label G, which means high energy costs, something to factor into your budget.
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. Improvements like insulation or solar panels could help, but that would require investment.
The nearest train station is 16.5 km away, so it's not within walking distance. You would need a car or bus to reach it.
There are several primary schools within about 2 km, including Basisschool De Reinboge (1.7 km) and Eben Haezerschool (2.2 km). For secondary education, the nearest school is 7.1 km away, so a longer commute is needed.
Echten has a very low crime rate, only 3 incidents in total, so it's a safe and quiet village. The population is small and mostly consists of families and older residents.
The plot is 1185 m², which is very spacious for a detached home. It offers plenty of room for a garden, outdoor activities, or even extensions, subject to planning permission.
