Westerbroek Buitengebied, Midden-Groningen
NeighbourhoodThis detached home sits on a remarkably large plot in the quiet village of Westerbroek, part of the municipality of Midden-Groningen. With 437 m² of living space spread over a generous 1.4-hectare plot, there is plenty of room for a large family or anyone who values space and privacy. The house was built in 1979 and has an energy label D, so some modernisation may be in order. At €1,250,000, the price is on the high side compared to other detached houses in Midden-Groningen, but the exceptional plot size is a rare find.
The neighbourhood Westerbroek Buitengebied is a rural area with only 455 residents, almost all living in single-family homes. The population is predominantly older, with the largest age group between 45 and 65. It is a very quiet neighbourhood, with a low address density of 52 addresses per km², making it one of the least urbanised areas in the Netherlands. There are no neighbourhood reviews available for this area, so you would need to explore the surroundings yourself to get a feel for the community.
For daily groceries, the nearest supermarkets are a few kilometres away: a Coop is about 3.6 km from the house, and a Jumbo is just under 4 km. There are several primary schools within a 5 km radius, such as W.A. Scholtenschool and De Driebond. The nearest train station is 4.4 km away, making it possible to commute by train, though a car is almost essential for everyday life. The municipality Midden-Groningen offers a mix of rural and small-town amenities, with restaurants and a park within a couple of kilometres.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including SYB Makelaardij, Funda, Pararius, and Vastgoed Nederland.

About Oudeweg 60, Westerbroek
The asking price of €1,250,000 is on the high side compared to other vrijstaande woningen in Midden-Groningen. However, the plot of 14,025 m² is exceptionally large for a detached home in this area, which justifies the premium. Without comparable sales data for the immediate neighbourhood, it is difficult to say exactly how the price relates to the local market.
The home has energy label D, which is average for a house built in 1979. This means heating costs are moderate but not as low as with a modern, well-insulated home. You can expect to spend more on energy than with label A or B, but less than with label E, F or G.
The plot measures 14,025 m², which is very spacious. It offers plenty of room for a large garden, outdoor activities, or even a hobby farm, subject to local planning regulations. The exact possibilities depend on the zoning plan of the municipality.
