Oude Toldijk 1

The asking price of €975,000 is on the high side compared to other detached houses in De Wolden, but the plot of over 10,000 m² is exceptional. The house itself is 206 m² with a 1910 construction year and energy label C. Whether it is fair depends on how much you value the large plot and rural location.

The energy label is C, which means the home has reasonable energy efficiency. You can expect moderate heating costs, but it is not as efficient as a modern home. The label is based on the current insulation and installations.

The nearest train station is 11.2 km away. That is about a 15-minute drive or a longer cycle ride. Public transport connections are limited in this rural area, so a car is almost essential.

There are several primary schools within a few kilometres: Prins Johan Frisoschool (2.2 km), Basisschool De Rozebottel (2.2 km), and KC Het Veldboeket (4.7 km). For secondary education, the nearest school is about 10.5 km away, so older children will need to travel further.

The plot measures 10,035 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. The exact layout and possibilities depend on local zoning regulations.

The Verspreide huizen Koekange neighbourhood is a rural area with scattered homes and farms. It is very quiet, with low crime rates and a population of about 810. Most residents are older couples or families without children. There are no shops or amenities within walking distance, so a car is needed.

The nearest supermarket is the Coop at about 2 km, followed by a SPAR at 2.5 km. For a wider selection, you would need to drive to larger towns. Daily shopping is doable by bike or car, but not on foot.

With 206 m² of living space and a huge plot, there is plenty of room for a family. The neighbourhood is quiet and safe, but secondary schools are a fair distance away.
