About Veelerveensterweg 5, Vlagtwedde
Given the 78 m² floor area and the large plot of 1,140 m², the price is in line with the market for detached homes in Westerwolde. The 1925 construction and F energy label mean you should budget for higher energy costs, which is reflected in the asking price.
The energy label is F, which is poor. This means the home is not well insulated and heating costs will be high. You would need to invest in improvements like insulation or a new heating system to bring the label up.
The plot measures 1,140 m², which is very spacious. It offers plenty of room for a garden, possibly a vegetable patch, or even extending the house, subject to planning permission.
