About Polstraat 16, Wijk En Aalburg
The asking price of €399,000 is on the high side compared to other homes in the area, especially given the 74 m² floor area and energy label F. However, the 194 m² plot is generous for a village location, and detached homes are scarce in Aalburg. Whether it's fair depends on how much you value the outdoor space and the quiet setting.
Energy label F indicates poor energy efficiency, so you can expect higher heating and electricity costs compared to a more modern home. The house was built in 1960, so insulation and glazing may be outdated. It's worth budgeting for potential upgrades, though the exact running costs depend on usage and future improvements.
The nearest train station is 16.1 km away, so this home is not ideal for daily commuting by rail. You would rely on a car or bus for longer journeys. The village is better suited to those who work locally or remotely.
There are several primary schools within walking distance. Basisschool J. Henri Dunant is about 734 m away, and Basisschool De Hoeksteen is around 1.4 km. For secondary education, the nearest school is 1.6 km away. The area is family-friendly with good school options.
Aalburg has a low crime rate, with only 54 total offences recorded. Residents describe it as a quiet, safe place. The single review gives it a 9.75 out of 10, calling it "Great." It's a peaceful village where you can feel secure.
Jumbo is just 518 m away, making it easy to pop out for groceries. Aldi is about 1.4 km, and there are several other supermarkets within 5 km. Daily shopping is convenient without needing a car.
