Achterdiep, Emmen
This detached house sits quietly along the Weerdingerkanaal NZ, surrounded by open fields and a sense of space that is hard to find elsewhere. With 288 m² of living space on a 1200 m² plot, it offers room to spread out without feeling empty. The price of €589,000 is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average, but the size and privacy are exceptional. For context, detached houses in Emmen vary widely in price and size.
Achterdiep is a tiny hamlet with just 245 residents, almost all living in single-family homes. It is a quiet, family-oriented area: 45% of households have children, and the average household size is 2.6 people.

There are no neighbourhood reviews available, but the figures speak for themselves, a close-knit, peaceful community. The Achterdiep neighbourhood is one of the least urbanised parts of Emmen.

About Weerdingerkanaal NZ 72, Nieuw-Weerdinge
The asking price is €589,000 for a 288 m² detached house on a 1200 m² plot, built in 1997. Compared to other homes in Achterdiep, this is on the high side, but the size and plot are exceptional for the area. The neighbourhood has very few sales, so direct comparisons are limited. The price reflects the generous living space and rural setting.
Energy label C is an official registration from EP-Online. For a house built in 1997, label C is typical, it means the home is reasonably efficient, but not as efficient as modern standards. Expect moderate energy costs, but the exact consumption depends on usage and the specific installations.
The nearest supermarket is Jumbo at 6.5 km, followed by Lidl at 6.6 km. The closest primary school is Openbare Basisschool 't Koppel at 1.5 km, and the nearest secondary school is 7.7 km away. A GP is 1.7 km from the home. A car is practically essential for daily life here.
Achterdiep recorded only 5 total crimes in the latest data, which is very low. The neighbourhood is extremely quiet and rural, with a strong family presence. The low address density (84 per km²) means little traffic and few passers-by.
The nearest train station is 8.9 km away. A car is recommended for commuting and errands.
The plot measures 1200 m², which is generous for a detached house. It provides ample outdoor space, but the listing does not specify a garden, terrace, or other features. The size suggests plenty of room for gardening, parking, or expansion, subject to local regulations.

How residents experience their municipality
There's nothing to do. Everything is super expensive in the shops. There's a doctor, pharmacy and bakery. But there's nothing for teenagers to do. Only the spot (cafe), football field, cafe. No activities or workshops for 18 years and older. The street is well lit but behind our house there's an alley and you can't see anything at all. There are a lot of drunk people. There are no neighbourhood parties. Neighbours make a lot of noise at 3am.
Auto-translated to English by AIWonderfully enjoyable place to live
Auto-translated to English by AIGood neighbours, mostly young people with children, also 2 schools, small neighbourhood shop, easily accessible doctor's practice and pharmacy. This is Zwartemeer where I and my husband live. I also live conveniently close to work within walking distance of the clients.
Auto-translated to English by AINice cosy neighbourhood, everyone welcome and not unfriendly
Auto-translated to English by AILook, it could be a lot better, but I still have to say it's a great neighbourhood. Every city has its less pleasant spots where you don't want to walk alone. In terms of schools, it's very well organised for every level and age – it's just good here! Many schools to choose from. Also for further education, it's very good here! Furthermore, the shops are excellent!
Auto-translated to English by AIWe are friendly neighbours
Auto-translated to English by AIa very good neighbourhood
Auto-translated to English by AII'm not much of a neighbourhood person. Usually the neighbours are young people and we are already at a certain age. Good accessibility by car, safe for children, really a lot of green space, the nearest piece of land
