About Weerdingerstraat 40, Emmen

Detached houses in Emmen vary widely, and this one sits on a generous 684 m² plot. Whether it is fair depends on how you value the extra space and the classic 1920s character.
The energy label is D, which is average for a house of this age. In Emmermeer, 31.3% of homes have a label D or lower, while 37.5% have label A. A D label means heating costs will be moderate, but not as low as a modern A-rated home.

Montessorischool Emmen is 374 m away, and there are several other primary schools within a ten-minute walk, including Openbare Basisschool Emmermeer and Groen van Prinstererschool. Secondary education is 1.1 km away.
Jumbo is just 150 m away, so daily shopping is very convenient. Coop, Aldi and Ekoplaza are all within about 800,900 m, giving you plenty of choice.
The CBS recorded 296 total crimes in Emmermeer, but without a per-capita comparison it is hard to judge. The area has a moderate urban density and a mix of residents, which often contributes to a balanced social environment.
The house was built in 1920, so it has classic features but may need some modernisation. The energy label D suggests the insulation is not top-tier. The listing does not mention any recent renovations, so you should factor in potential updates.
