About Steenhovensedijk 17, Waterlandkerkje
The asking price of €1,350,000 is in line with the market for detached houses in Sluis. The home offers 286 m² of living space on a large 3,545 m² plot, which is exceptional. However, the energy label G means you should budget for high heating costs. There are no recent neighbourhood sales figures available for comparison.
The energy label is G, the lowest rating. This means the home is not energy-efficient and will have high heating and electricity costs. The house dates from 1700, so insulation and glazing are likely poor. You can expect significant monthly energy bills, though exact amounts depend on usage and future improvements.
The nearest train station is 44.3 km away, so this home is not suitable for commuting by train. A car is essential for most journeys. The area is very rural with limited public transport.
There are several primary schools within about 3.2 km, including Basisschool Sint Bavo and Basisschool de Berenburcht. For secondary education, Zwin College (offering VMBO, HAVO, Atheneum and Gymnasium) is about 3.6 km away. All are a short drive from the home.
The nearest supermarkets are SPAR, Jumbo and Lidl, all about 3.2 km away. Albert Heijn and Aldi are slightly further at around 3.7-3.8 km. There are five supermarkets within 5 km, but none within walking distance.
The plot measures 3,545 m², which is very spacious. It offers plenty of room 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.
Yes, the neighbourhood is very quiet. With an address density of just 15 per km², it is one of the least urbanised areas in the Netherlands. The population is small (225 residents) and mostly older. There are no neighbourhood reviews available, but the rural setting suggests peace and privacy.
The house was built in 1700, so it has historic character. The listing does not mention any monument status or special features. Given its age, you can expect traditional construction, thick walls, and possibly period details, but also potential maintenance needs.
