About Rijksstraatweg 186-471, Dordrecht
The asking price of €125,000 is 20% below the neighbourhood average of €155,705, and also below the median of €154,750. However, the floor area of 68 m² is 40% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 113 m². So the price per square metre works out at about €1,838, which is below the neighbourhood average of €2,251 per m². Given the compact size and the quiet location, the price is keen.
The home has energy label C, which is average for a house built in 2010. In the neighbourhood, 62.5% of homes have label C, and 25% have label A. Label C means reasonable energy efficiency, you can expect moderate heating costs, but not as low as an A-rated home.
The nearest train station is 7.1 km away. That's about a 15-minute drive or a longer cycle. Public transport options in the area are limited, so a car is almost essential for commuting.
The neighbourhood recorded 74 total crimes, but without a per-capita figure it's hard to compare. Given the low population of 390, that's roughly 190 crimes per 1,000 residents, which is relatively high. However, the area is very rural and quiet, so it may be a mix of petty crime and incidents related to the recreational nature of the Biesbosch.
The plot is 351 m², which is generous for a 68 m² home. The listing does not specify a garden or outdoor features, but the plot size suggests plenty of outdoor space. You could potentially extend the house (subject to planning permission) or create a garden, but check with the municipality for building regulations.
The nearest primary school is interconfessionele basisschool De Klaverhoek, 2.8 km away. Basisschool Het Talent is 3.9 km away. For secondary education, the nearest is 6 km away. Most families would drive or cycle to school.
Sold homes in the neighbourhood took an average of 69 days to sell, which is about two months. That's a fairly typical pace for a quiet area. The current home has been listed at a market-rate price, so it may sell faster.
