About Zoelensestraatje 5, Zoelen
The asking price of €995,000 is significantly higher than the neighbourhood average of €245,000, but this home is also much larger: 226 m² versus 96 m² on average. The price per square metre works out at about €4,403, which is above the neighbourhood average of €2,552 per m². Given the size and the detached nature, the price is on the high side but reflects the property's unique characteristics.
The home has energy label D. In the neighbourhood, most available homes have a better energy label, so heating and electricity costs may be higher than in a more efficient home. Label D is average for a house built in 1979, but you should expect moderate energy bills.
The nearest train station is 6.1 km away, which is about a 10-minute drive. Public transport options in this rural area are limited, so a car is essential for commuting.

The plot measures 990 m². The listing does not specify whether there is a garden, but with a plot of this size, outdoor space is almost certain. You would need to confirm the exact layout with the agent.
