NeighbourhoodA spacious detached home in Musselkanaal

The Musselkanaal Noord neighbourhood
Musselkanaal Noord is a small, rural neighbourhood with about 1,600 residents. Most homes are owner-occupied and detached, and the area is very quiet. One resident, who has lived here for 12 years, describes it as lonely: "After living here for 12 years as a westerner, I have come to the conclusion that the people here in the farming countryside only live for themselves, don't think of others, do what they want, are totally not social, or have no idea what that means." The review is based on a single opinion, so it may not reflect everyone's experience. For more on the area, see the Musselkanaal Noord neighbourhood.
Life on the street
Daily errands are straightforward: the nearest primary school is a five-minute walk away, and there are two supermarkets within a couple of streets away. For secondary school, you'd need to travel a bit further. The area is very rural, with the lowest address density in the country, so a car is handy for most trips. For more about the wider area, check out the municipality of Stadskanaal.

Frequently asked questions
About Sluisstraat 113, Musselkanaal
Is €539,000 a fair price for this detached house?
The asking price is €539,000 for a 272 m² detached house built in 2010 on a 640 m² plot. Compared to other homes in Musselkanaal, this is on the high side, but the size and energy label A+++ are exceptional. Without comparable sales data in the neighbourhood, it's hard to say if it's a bargain, but the price reflects the generous space and modern efficiency.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is A+++, which is the most efficient label possible. This means the home is very energy-efficient, so you can expect low heating and electricity costs. The label is an official registration from EP-Online.

Experiences from Musselkanaal Noord
How residents experience their neighbourhood
After living here for 12 years as a westerner, I have come to the conclusion that the people here in the farming countryside only live for themselves, don't think of others, do what they want, are totally not social, or have no idea what that means. No friendliness... nothing. The winter months are terrible, dark and gloomy, boring and quiet. There are no holidays, nothing. Going out, nothing. Far too little lighting. I do understand the youth, what is there for them to find here, what is left for them? Nothing. So that image, oh how nice in the countryside, how beautiful, what friendly people... no. Loneliness, and a whole lot of ageing. But luckily the end is almost in sight for us... I'll be glad when I can leave this place behind me. Yes, everything is bad here: healthcare, public transport, lighting, help. No, Stadskanaal is not gold. Clean, yes the streets are, but life and laughter are not, and what happens in the fields... but the streets are clean, yes. How do you say it... Moj Stadskanaal
