About Vijzelweg 7, Eext
The asking price of €895,000 is on the high side compared to other detached houses in Aa en Hunze. However, the plot of 4470 m² is exceptionally large for a home of this type in this area, which explains the premium. Whether it is fair depends on how much you value the extra land and the rural location.
The home has energy label B, which is quite efficient for a house built in 1909. This means heating costs are likely to be moderate, though older homes may still require some attention to insulation. The label is based on the current installation and insulation measures.
The nearest supermarkets are Jumbo and Lidl in Gieten, both about 2.4 km away, a five-minute drive. There are also Coop and Aldi within 5 km. For daily groceries, a car is convenient, but cycling is also possible.
The closest primary school is Basisschool Prins Willem Alexander at 1.7 km, and the Dr. Nassau College (secondary) is 1.8 km away. Both are within walking or cycling distance. Several other primary schools are within 5 km.
