About Maarweg 22, Merkelbeek
The asking price of €298,000 is in line with the market for semi-detached houses in Beekdaelen. The home has 95 m² of living space and a 262 m² plot, which is typical for this type of property in the area. Without comparable sales data for the neighbourhood, it is hard to say whether it is a bargain, but the price appears reasonable given the size and location.
The home has an energy label D. This means it is moderately efficient. You can expect higher energy costs compared to a home with label A or B, but it is not the worst. The house was built in 1953, so some insulation improvements may have been made over the years, but the label suggests there is room for upgrading.
The nearest train station is 5.4 km away. That is about a 10-minute drive or a 20-minute bike ride. Public transport connections in the area are limited, so a car is handy for commuting.
The closest primary school is Basisschool de Woanderboom, just 541 metres away, a short walk. Other primary schools within a couple of kilometres include De Verrekijker and De Sprong. For secondary education, the nearest school is about 3 km away, so children will need to travel a bit further.
