About Poeldijk 8A, Rijpwetering
The asking price of €1,475,000 is on the high side compared to other detached houses in Kaag en Braassem. However, the property has a large plot of 1,543 m², a floor area of 257 m², and an energy label A, which are all factors that can justify a premium. The final sale price will depend on market demand and how buyers value the rural location and generous outdoor space.
The home has energy label A, which is very efficient. This means the property is well insulated and likely has modern heating systems, keeping energy costs relatively low. It is a strong selling point, especially for a house built in 1950, as older homes often have lower labels.
The nearest train station is 9.3 km away. This makes the location more suitable for those who primarily drive, as public transport connections are limited. The distance is about a 15-minute drive or a longer cycle ride.
There are several primary schools within a few kilometres, including RKBS De Kinderbrug at 1.4 km, RKBS De Kiem at 2.6 km, and Rooms Katholiek Basisschool de Roelevaer at 2.8 km. Secondary schools are further away, at 6.7 km, so a car or bus is needed for older children.
The plot measures 1,543 m², which is very generous for a detached house. It offers plenty of space for a garden, outdoor activities, or even extensions (subject to planning permission). The exact layout and condition of the garden are not described in the listing, but the size is a major asset.
Rijpwetering is a small, rural village with a low crime rate. In the most recent data, there were 28 total crimes recorded in the neighbourhood, which is very low for an area of this size. Residents generally feel safe, and the quiet surroundings contribute to a peaceful living environment.
The nearest supermarket is about 3 km away, so daily shopping requires a car or bike. A restaurant is 0.5 km away, and a GP is 0.6 km. For a library or park, you would need to travel about 4.5 km. The village has basic facilities, but for more extensive shopping, you would head to nearby towns.
