AreaA quiet spot in Boswijck-Oost
This terraced house sits on a quiet road in a residential part of Boswijck-Oost, a small neighbourhood in Sappemeer. With 550 residents, it is a compact and calm corner of the town, and the setting is exactly that: a peaceful street within a built-up area. The asking price of €319,500 is on the high side compared with terraced houses in Midden-Groningen, so it is worth weighing up what you get for the money.
The house itself
Built in 1987, this is a three-storey terraced house with five rooms, four bedrooms and one bathroom. The agent lists the living area at 100 m², while the BAG registration records 112 m²; the plot is 276 m² in both. There is a front and rear garden facing south, plus an attached brick garage. The home has roof, wall and floor insulation, a combi boiler, and is offered as full ownership. The energy label is B, which is an efficient label, so heating costs should be manageable.

The neighbourhood has a mix of ages, with a notable share of residents aged 65 and over. It is a place where people seem to settle in and stay, and the calm tone comes through in the reviews.
