End-of-terrace houses in a changing municipality
Midden-Groningen is no ordinary housing market. The municipality was created in 2018 from the merger of Hoogezand-Sappemeer, Slochteren and Menterwolde, and this is reflected in the supply: from post-war terraced houses on the edge of Hoogezand to larger plots in the Oldambt-like villages such as Zuidbroek and Noordbroek. End-of-terrace houses are not rare here, but they don't hang around either. Those who actively search have an advantage over those who wait.
The supply changes regularly. Check the overview at the top of this page for the current situation. If you want a broader view of the owner-occupied market, all owner-occupied homes in Midden-Groningen is a good starting point.
What you need to know when buying an end-of-terrace house
An end-of-terrace house has advantages (more light, own driveway, side wall), but also points of attention that often surprise buyers:
- Side wall and insulation. An end-of-terrace house has more external surface area than a mid-terrace house. Always ask for the energy label and have a structural survey done, especially for homes built before 1980.
- Boundary and easements. With end-of-terrace houses, the boundary sometimes runs through a path or driveway that neighbours are used to using. Check the land registry and ask the notary about registered easements.
- Municipal ground lease or driveway permit. Want to create or extend a driveway? In Midden-Groningen you need a driveway permit from the municipality. Check this before making an offer.
- Buildings insurance. More external surface area usually means a higher premium. Compare this before purchase.
- Speed of response. End-of-terrace houses attract more viewers than mid-terrace houses in the same price range. Engage a buying agent if you have missed out several times.
- Push notifications via the Buurtje.nl app. Set up a search and receive an immediate alert when a new end-of-terrace house becomes available. The app is free to download from the App Store and Google Play.
- Financing of the side wall. Banks sometimes look more critically at the energy label for end-of-terrace houses, because heating costs can be higher. A label C or lower can affect the maximum mortgage.
What determines the price of an end-of-terrace house here?
End-of-terrace houses in Midden-Groningen are in the mid-range of the regional owner-occupied market. That means: more affordable than the city of Groningen, but not as low as some surrounding shrinking municipalities. The price is determined by a combination of factors:
- Location within the municipality (village centre or ribbon development)
- Size of the plot and presence of a garage or carport
- Energy label and condition of the roof and facade
- Proximity to the A7 or railway (Hoogezand-Sappemeer has a station)
- Whether the home has already been made more sustainable (solar panels, heat pump)
