About Kromme Stelakker 17, Cothen
The asking price of €495,000 is below the neighbourhood average of €575,125 and the median of €587,000 for homes in Cothen. Given that the average price per m² in the area is €5,790, this home's price per m² works out to about €3,462, significantly lower. That makes it a keenly priced option in the current market.
The home has energy label C. That means it has reasonable insulation and energy efficiency, though not as high as modern standards. You can expect moderate energy bills, but it's worth noting that over 70% of homes in Cothen have label A or B, so this one is slightly less efficient than the local average.
The nearest train station is 10 km away. That makes it a drive or a bus ride for commuting. Cothen is more car-dependent for rail travel, but the village itself has good local amenities within walking distance.
Cothen is very family-friendly. Nearly half of households have children, and there are two primary schools within a five-minute walk. The village has a low crime rate and a quiet, rural feel. One resident describes it simply as 'Cosy', a safe, welcoming environment.
The house was built in 1973. That means it's over 50 years old, but many homes from that era are solidly built. The energy label C is typical for a house of that age with some modernisation.
The listing does not state the number of bedrooms. With 143 m² of floor space, a semi-detached house of this size typically has three to four bedrooms, but you would need to check the floor plan with the agent for the exact layout.
