De Wiken noordoost, Smallingerland
NeighbourhoodThis 1972 terraced house on Foswerd sits in a leafy part of Drachten, with a neat front garden and a private rear plot. At 115 m² over three floors, it offers more space than many similar homes in the area. The asking price of €250,000 is keen compared to the neighbourhood average of €350,000, partly because terraced houses in Smallingerland tend to sell for around €2,381 per m² here.
De Wiken noordoost is a quiet, family-oriented pocket of Drachten with mostly single-family homes and a mix of ages. The area feels green and spacious, with a park just a couple of streets away. Around a third of homes are owner-occupied, and the streets are lined with mature trees. There are no resident reviews available for this neighbourhood, but the calm atmosphere is evident from the low crime figures and the many families with children.
Your daily routine here is straightforward: Poiesz and Albert Heijn are both just around the corner for groceries, and there are several primary schools within a five-minute walk, including Eben Haezer and JKC de Wiekslag. The nearest secondary school is a ten-minute walk away. For a coffee or a meal out, a couple of restaurants are a short stroll from the house. The train station is 19.6 km away, so a car or bus is needed for longer journeys.
At present the home is listed through several channels, including Dijkstra Makelaardij en Financieel Advies. The listing is available on Funda and the agent's own site.

About Foswerd 68, Drachten
The asking price of €250,000 is below the neighbourhood average of €350,000 and also below the average price per m² of €2,381 for this area. Given that similar homes in De Wiken noordoost have sold for around €319,300 on average, this listing appears keenly priced.
The home has energy label C, which is average for a house of this age. You can expect reasonable energy costs, though not as low as a modern A-rated home. Half of the homes in the neighbourhood have label A, so this one is slightly less efficient than the local norm.
The plot measures 155 m², which includes the house footprint. The garden is not described in detail in the listing, but the plot size suggests a decent-sized private outdoor space at the rear.
Several primary schools are within walking distance: Eben Haezer (303 m), JKC de Wiekslag (373 m), and Basisschool De Parel (596 m). The nearest secondary school is 0.9 km away, about a ten-minute walk.
The nearest train station is 19.6 km from the house, so it is not within walking distance. A car or bus is needed for train travel.
De Wiken noordoost is a quiet, family-friendly area with mostly single-family homes and a low crime rate. There is a park just 0.2 km away, and the streets are green and spacious. The population is a mix of families and older residents.
The listing does not state how long it has been for sale. However, homes in this neighbourhood typically sell within 86 days on average, so the market here is not exceptionally fast.
