About Sportlaan 44, Werkendam
The asking price of €675,000 is above the average sold price of €431,333 for homes in Vervoornepolder zuid. However, this property is larger than typical homes in the area, with 185 m² of floor space and a 475 m² plot. Recent sales data is limited, so it's hard to make a direct comparison. The price reflects the size and the quiet, family-friendly location.
The home has an energy label B, which means it is reasonably energy-efficient. You can expect lower heating costs compared to older homes with poorer labels, but it's not as efficient as a modern A-label property. The exact running costs will depend on your usage and energy prices.
The nearest train station is 9.1 km away, so it's not within walking distance. You would need a car or bus to reach it. The area is more suited to those who drive or work locally.
There are several primary schools within walking distance: Ds Johannes Groenewegenschool (549 m), Het Baken (610 m), and OBS Sigmond (750 m). For secondary education, the nearest school is 4.1 km away, so a bike or car is needed for older children.
Vervoornepolder zuid has a low crime rate, with only 41 total offences recorded in the latest data. It's a quiet residential area where families feel safe. The streets are calm and well-maintained.
Aldi is just 332 m away, so you can walk there in a few minutes. Albert Heijn is 910 m away, about a ten-minute walk. There's also a MCD supermarket at 1 km. For daily shopping, you're well covered.
The plot is 475 m², which includes the house and garden. The garden is a good size for a family, with space for a lawn, patio, and perhaps a play area. The exact layout is not described in the listing, but it's a generous outdoor space.
The house was built in 1974, so it's around 50 years old. With an energy label B, it has likely been updated over the years. The construction is typical of that era, with solid brickwork and a traditional layout.
