Echten, De Wolden
NeighbourhoodThis detached home on Ruinerweg 3 dates from 1632, making it one of the oldest houses in the area. With 169 m² of living space and a huge plot of 2640 m², it offers a rare combination of character and space. The energy label G means heating costs will be high, but the price of €400,000 is keen compared to other detached houses in De Wolden.
Echten is a tiny village with just over 200 residents. One resident describes it as "Rural and wonderfully quiet", a place where you can still put things outside and enjoy the sheep in the meadow. There's a school for the youngest villagers, but for groceries you'll need to go elsewhere. The neighbourhood is mostly families and couples, with a mix of ages. This is a close-knit community in the municipality De Wolden.
For your daily bread, the nearest supermarket is a SPAR about 2.4 km away, a five-minute drive. The primary school is just 0.3 km from the door, so little ones can walk. Other schools like Montessorischool Het Element and De Regenboog are within 3 km. A restaurant is 0.5 km away, and the nearest train station is 7.4 km, so a car is essential.
At the time of writing the home is listed only via Jouw makelaar Sandra Scholten.

Very good · 1 resident
If you think of rural living, this is where you end up. There's a school for the youngest villagers. Otherwise wonderfully quiet, and having to go to another place for groceries is just the way it is! Here you can still put things outside and enjoy the sheep in the meadow.

About Ruinerweg 3, Echten (Dr)
Given the large plot of 2640 m² and the historic character, the price is keen compared to other detached homes in De Wolden. However, the energy label G means you'll face high energy costs, so factor that into your budget.
The energy label is G, the lowest rating. This means the home is not energy-efficient, so you can expect high heating and electricity bills. Renovations to improve insulation and heating would be a significant investment.
The closest supermarket is a SPAR at 2.4 km, about a five-minute drive. Other options include Albert Heijn and PLUS at 3.6 km. For daily shopping, a car is practically essential.
The nearest train station is 7.4 km away.
Echten is a tiny, quiet village with about 205 residents. One resident calls it "Rural and wonderfully quiet", a place where you can enjoy nature and peace. There's a primary school for young children, but for other amenities you'll need to travel.
The house was built in 1632, so it's over 390 years old. The listing does not mention the condition, but with such an old property, you should expect maintenance and possibly renovations. The energy label G also suggests outdated insulation and heating.
