About Sophialaan 14, Soest
The rent of €3,500 is 37% above the neighbourhood average of €2,550. However, the house is also 31% larger than average (155 m² vs 118 m²). So you are paying more, but you get significantly more space. Whether it is fair depends on how much you value the extra square metres and the character of a 1930s semi-detached home.
Soestdijk scores an 8.63 out of 10 from two residents. They highlight safety and beauty, but note it is quiet and not very multicultural. The area has many older residents and families, with a mix of single-person and family households. It is moderately urban, so you have amenities nearby without the hustle of a city centre.
The train station is 1.1 km away, about a ten-minute walk. This makes commuting by rail quite convenient.
Several schools are within walking distance: the Kolibrie school for special education is 302 m away, RKBS de Driesprong Dalton-School is 393 m, and the 1e Van der Huchtschool is 630 m. There are also secondary schools within 0.9 km.
The energy label is D. This is average for a house of this age (1936). You can expect moderate energy costs, but not as low as a modern, well-insulated home. It is worth checking the exact insulation and heating system before moving in.
The plot is 285 m², but the listing does not explicitly mention a garden.
