About Oude Steeg 30, Gees
The price is in line with other vrijstaande woningen in Coevorden, given the 131 m² floor area and the large plot of 1,350 m². The home has an A energy label, which adds value because of low energy costs. Without specific market data for the buurt, it is hard to say if it is a bargain, but it appears reasonably priced for the size and location.
The energy label is A, which is very efficient. This means the home is well insulated and has low heating costs compared to older homes. Given the building year of 1873, the label A suggests significant renovations have been done, such as new insulation, double glazing or a modern heating system.
The plot measures 1,350 m², which is very spacious for a detached home. It offers plenty of room for a garden, outdoor seating, or even a vegetable patch. The exact layout and what is possible (e.g., building an extension) would depend on local zoning rules, but the size gives you a lot of flexibility.
