Havelte, Westerveld
NeighbourhoodThis detached house on van Helomaweg 5 sits in a quiet part of Havelte, with the forest and heath practically on your doorstep. The 279 m² of living space is generous, and the large plot of 7192 m² gives you plenty of room to enjoy the outdoors. At €1,299,000, the asking price is well above the neighbourhood average, reflecting the size and setting. Compared to other detached houses in Westerveld, this is a premium property.
Havelte is a small village where people know each other. One resident describes it as a 'lovely little village' with a school, shops and swimming pool within walking distance. Another appreciates the 'quiet space nature' and diverse ages. However, a third review paints a less rosy picture, mentioning a closed-off culture and issues with bullying. Based on three reviews, opinions are mixed. The neighbourhood has a mix of families and older residents, and most homes are owner-occupied. For more on the area, see Havelte.
For your morning bread, Albert Heijn is just a couple of streets away. There are also several primary schools nearby, including OBS De Bosrank, which is a five-minute walk. The village has a restaurant and a library within walking distance, and the train station is about 9.5 km away. For a wider range of amenities, you might head to the municipality of Westerveld.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including Drieklomp Makelaars.

Nice neighbourhood with diverse ages. Good atmosphere, quiet, next to nature. Really nice to live
Auto-translated to English by AIA lovely little village to live in, everyone knows everyone culture. School, shops and swimming pool within walking distance.
Auto-translated to English by AIPetty working-class neighbourhood, full of gossip and intrigue. Bullying culture. Excluding those who think differently. If you're an outsider, not 'working-class' enough, if your social position is very low, you're a target. Harsh, somewhat hateful culture. Two groups: the golf club elite and the Boer and Burger supporters. I belong to neither and therefore find no connection. I find the alcohol consumption and the frequent violence striking. Things that are overlooked. Their own customs, own rules, own laws. A self-contained community cut off from the rest of the country. They only respect rules if they can use them to muzzle people they don't like. And those rules never apply to them. A very strange culture. After 11 years, I still marvel at it every day. The municipality only stands up for its own kind. Very authoritarian, biased and corrupt. Corrupt: cronyism and conflicts of interest. Building one-sided dossiers against people they don't like. As for nature: everything is being demolished, for the past 10 years. The forests have been thinned out, stripped for financial gain. Facilities: without a car you're far from everything and the bus sometimes doesn't run at all. So you stand at the bus stop for an hour waiting for the next one. I sometimes think of Pommetje Horlepiep here.
