About Bloemenstraat 50, Ter Aar
The asking price of €442,500 is 48% below the average asking price in Papenveer (€846,925) and well under the median of €742,500. Given the 129 m² floor area and the need for energy upgrades (label E), the price is on the low side for the neighbourhood. However, the market here is varied: prices range from €119,900 to €1,650,000, so this home sits at the more affordable end.
The energy label is E, which is below average for the neighbourhood, 28.6% of homes in Papenveer have label D or lower. An E label means the home is not very energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating bills. It's worth factoring in potential improvements like insulation or double glazing, though the exact costs depend on the current installations.
The nearest train station is 11.2 km away, so this is not a location for daily commuting by rail. You would rely on a car or bus for longer journeys. The area is more suited to those who work locally or remotely.
The closest supermarket is SPAR at 1.2 km, followed by Aldi at 2.1 km and Vomar at 2.2 km. For primary education, IKC De Poel Langeraar is 1.9 km away, SWS De Veenvogel is 2.2 km, and Basisschool De Vaart is 2.5 km. Secondary schools are further, at 7.7 km.
The asking price per m² is roughly €3,430 (€442,500 / 129 m²). The neighbourhood average is €5,432 per m², so this home is significantly cheaper per square metre. That reflects its older construction and lower energy label, but also makes it a relatively affordable option in Papenveer.
