About Westfriesedijk 16, Aartswoud
The price is on the high side compared to other detached homes in Opmeer, but the plot of 1965 m² and the historic character (built in 1850) are exceptional. The energy label E means higher energy costs, which may affect the overall value. Without comparable sales in the immediate neighbourhood, it is hard to say exactly, but the asking price reflects the unique combination of size, age and land.
The energy label is E, which is not very efficient. You can expect higher heating bills compared to a modern home. Given the age of the house (1850), improvements like insulation or double glazing could help, but that would require investment. The label is a fact to take into account when budgeting.
The nearest train station is 9.4 km away, so you will need a car or bus to reach it. This home is not ideal for daily commuting by train unless you are prepared for a drive or cycle to the station.
There are two primary schools within about 3 km: Openbare Basisschool de Dubbele Punt (2.7 km) and Openbare Basisschool de Plaats (2.9 km). For secondary education, the nearest school is 11.7 km away, so older children would need to travel further.
The neighbourhood recorded only 2 total crimes in the latest data, which is very low. With only 45 residents and a rural setting, it is a quiet and safe area.
The plot is 1965 m², which is very spacious. It offers plenty of room for a garden, possibly a vegetable patch, or even an extension (subject to planning permission). The exact layout and possibilities are not described in the listing, so you would need to see it for yourself.
