Korte Bree 8, Gieten
Satisfactory · 2 residents
I think safety in Gieten is very poor, many young people are very antisocial. I don't dare go out alone (as a girl) in the evening/night. The community is unsociable, arguments break out quickly and the youngsters are terribly antisocial. There are hardly any facilities, there is nothing for young people to do. There are a few shops and 1 snack bar & 2 pizzerias. Accessibility is fine in itself, you can easily get to public transport by bus. By car it's even easier. Education is very extensive for 1 village. There are 2 primary schools, 2 childcare centres and 1 secondary school.

About Korte Bree 8, Gieten
The asking price of €350,000 is 44% below the average neighbourhood asking price of €626,036. However, this home is also smaller than average (124 m² vs 263 m²). Compared to other semi-detached homes in Aa en Hunze, it is priced keenly, especially given the large plot.
The home has energy label C. This is a reasonable rating, meaning the home is moderately energy-efficient. You can expect average heating costs, but not as low as with A or B labels. In the neighbourhood, 42.9% of homes have label A or better, while 35.7% have label C.
Residents have mixed views. One review says safety is poor, with antisocial young people and drug issues, while another describes a cosy atmosphere with a neighbourhood watch. The total number of crimes reported in the area is 148, but without a per-capita figure it's hard to compare.
The Dr. Nassau College secondary school is just 232 metres away, so a two-minute walk. Primary schools Kindcentrum De Marke (1.2 km) and Bonnerschool (1.3 km) are also within walking distance. There are two childcare centres nearby as well.
The nearest train station is 15 km away, so not within walking distance. You would need a car or bus to reach it. The bus network in Gieten is accessible, but for daily commuting by train, a car is more practical.
The plot measures 520 m², which is generous for a semi-detached home. This gives you a good-sized garden and outdoor space. The home itself has 124 m² of living space over two floors, typical for a 1960s semi-detached house.
