About Willem Kippstraat 3, Megen
The asking price of €865,000 is above the neighbourhood median of €798,000 and the average of €790,143. However, this is a detached house, which is a rare type in Megen (only 7 homes for sale). The price per m² is about €5,058, which is higher than the neighbourhood average of €3,438 per m², partly because of the plot size and the detached status. It is on the high side compared to recent sales, but the market is thin.
The home has energy label D. This is common for a house built in 1935, as most homes in the neighbourhood (83.3%) have label D or lower. Label D means moderate energy efficiency; you can expect higher heating costs compared to modern homes. Improvements like insulation or double glazing could improve the label and reduce bills.
Megen is a family-friendly village with 255 households with children and a primary school (Basissch Klimop) just 143 m away. There are also several other schools within a few kilometres. The area is quiet, with low crime and plenty of green space. The population includes many older residents, so it is a mixed-age community.
The nearest supermarket is an Aldi at 2.3 km, and a Jumbo is 5.3 km. For daily needs, a car is useful. There is a GP at 0.6 km, a restaurant at 0.5 km, and a park at 0.4 km. The village has a library 6.1 km away and a train station 7.5 km away, so public transport is limited.
The house was built in 1935, so it is nearly 90 years old. With energy label D, it likely has original features but may need updates to insulation, heating, or windows. The listing does not mention any recent renovations, so a buyer should budget for modernisation. The plot of 355 m² offers space for extensions, subject to planning.
Recent sales in Megen averaged €539,000 with an average time on market of 17 days. This home is priced significantly higher, but it is a detached house, while recent sales may include other types. The neighbourhood has only 7 homes for sale, so supply is limited, which can support higher prices.
