About Mr. Harm Smeengeweg 19, Witteveen
The asking price of €389,000 is in line with the market for detached houses in Midden-Drenthe. The home has 119 m² of living space on a large 987 m² plot, which adds value. However, the energy label G means heating costs will be higher, so factor that into your budget.
Energy label G is the least efficient label, officially registered in EP-Online. It means the home's energy performance is low, so you can expect higher energy bills. The label does not tell you exactly what causes the low rating, it could be the heating system, ventilation, or other factors.

The nearest supermarkets are Lidl (4.3 km) and Jumbo (4.7 km). Primary school Basisschool de Wenteling is 1.7 km away. A park is just 400 m from the home. For a train station, you'd need to travel 12.6 km. The village has a restaurant 2.5 km away.

Positive but the neighbourhood around the street where we live is deteriorating. Lower social class rental homes, many foreign people and drug dealing in the area, also known to the police. Furthermore, many facilities in the area, shops, schools, a GP practice and a community centre.
Auto-translated to English by AIAlley not lit by street lamps. Responsibility lies with the housing association. I have a broken little toe from protruding sleepers of a garden in the alley. Ventilation system doesn't work. Draft, mould, water under crawl space. There was also a visit from a company regarding energy level. C was personal, will become B for business. The housing association in question is difficult to communicate with, in my experience. Same with the pavements in the alley and the drain I called the relevant department about, but still need to report it. The neighbourhood. I've only just moved here and what strikes me is that there are no rubbish bins where you can, for example, dispose of your dog's waste. I also see that people dump waste in the private woodland areas where you're allowed to walk, including the poop bags. And then the pavements. Dangerous! And in the neighbourhood itself, people drive too fast. I don't get too worked up about it, but I actually find it quite annoying. The greenery, walking paths, private woods where you can walk are beautiful. With diversity of flora and fauna. But again, I see stepped-on mushrooms, plastic, cans, bottles, and much more. I take with me what I can take. But actually, there should be a bin at the beginning of the path, which is on municipal land. I notice little of the community. I'm quite a loner. When I walk the dog, people are friendly. It has become a reasonably mixed village.
Auto-translated to English by AII notice a lot of incompetence in prejudices about appearance, your dog, waste, other people's belongings, nuisance from cats, poor maintenance of pavements, alleyways without lighting and poor paving. Little information about possible help for the less fortunate. Water damage in gardens and surroundings. Car tyres are always flat in certain parking spots. Setting off fireworks too early. And probably more.
Auto-translated to English by AIDrijber and surroundings is a very beautiful neighbourhood with nice detached houses, a close-knit community and space for animals and people. It is the place to live if you benefit from a beautiful view and peace, combined with a cosy atmosphere at village festivals or neighbourhood barbecues. It is very close to the VAM mountain where the European Cycling Championships were recently held. The European Championships went through our street, which is of course fantastic to see. Although amenities such as shops etc are only to be found in Hoogeveen (8 km away), it does have a nice little school with good education. All in all, a very nice neighbourhood to live in.
