About Oostindie 19, Zevenhuizen (Gr)
The asking price of €875,000 is on the high side compared to other vrijstaande woningen in Westerkwartier. However, the house offers 280 m² of living space on a 1060 m² plot, which is generous. The energy label C means moderate energy costs. Whether it is fair depends on how much you value the pre-war character and the large garden plot.
Drostinnewijk is a very small, quiet neighbourhood with only 230 residents. Most homes are owner-occupied, and families make up a large share of households. The area has a low crime rate and a rural feel. It is not urban at all, the address density is very low, so you will need a car for most errands.
The nearest train station is 15.6 km away, so this is not a location for daily commuting by rail. You would rely on a car or bus for longer journeys.
There are several primary schools within a short drive. OBS De Hasselbraam is 848 m away, and cbs Van Panhuys is 885 m away. For secondary education, the nearest school is 3.4 km away.
The energy label is C, which is average for a house of this age. You can expect moderate heating costs, but the pre-war construction may mean less insulation than modern homes.
The plot is 1060 m², which is very large. While the listing does not explicitly mention a garden, the size of the plot strongly suggests there is outdoor space. You would need to confirm the exact layout with the agent.
