Smilde-Centrum, Midden-Drenthe
NeighbourhoodThis mid-terrace house on Prins Clausstraat sits in a leafy part of Smilde, where the pace of life is relaxed. With 138 m² of living space and an energy label A, it's efficient and comfortable. The asking price of €325,000 is notably keen, 39% below the neighbourhood average, and it's the cheapest of the 11 homes currently for sale in the area. For context, terraced houses in Midden-Drenthe give a sense of what's available locally.
The neighbourhood Smilde-Centrum is a mixed village with around 3,700 residents. It's a green area with private woods and walking paths, and most homes are owner-occupied (60%). Based on three reviews, opinions vary. One resident says: "It's a lovely green area with all amenities nearby. The only thing I miss is a lunchroom/coffee shop/restaurant." Another is less positive: "Alley not lit by street lamps. Responsibility lies with the housing association. I have a broken little toe from protruding sleepers of a garden in the alley." A third notes: "I notice a lot of incompetence in prejudices about appearance, your dog, waste, other people's belongings, nuisance from cats, poor maintenance of pavements." So while the greenery is appreciated, some practical issues are flagged.
For your morning bread run, Jumbo is just around the corner, and Aldi is a couple of streets away. Two primary schools are within walking distance: Kindcentrum De Schutkampen is on your doorstep, and IKC Prinses Margriet is a five-minute walk. The municipality Midden-Drenthe offers a rural setting with basic amenities close by, though secondary schools are further afield.
At the time of writing the home is listed through several channels, including ERA Makelaardij Het Raadhuis, Funda and Pararius.

Alley not lit by street lamps. Responsibility lies with the housing association. I have a broken little toe from protruding sleepers of a garden in the alley. Ventilation system doesn't work. Draft, mould, water under crawl space. There was also a visit from a company regarding energy level. C was personal, will become B for business. The housing association in question is difficult to communicate with, in my experience. Same with the pavements in the alley and the drain I called the relevant department about, but still need to report it. The neighbourhood. I've only just moved here and what strikes me is that there are no rubbish bins where you can, for example, dispose of your dog's waste. I also see that people dump waste in the private woodland areas where you're allowed to walk, including the poop bags. And then the pavements. Dangerous! And in the neighbourhood itself, people drive too fast. I don't get too worked up about it, but I actually find it quite annoying. The greenery, walking paths, private woods where you can walk are beautiful. With diversity of flora and fauna. But again, I see stepped-on mushrooms, plastic, cans, bottles, and much more. I take with me what I can take. But actually, there should be a bin at the beginning of the path, which is on municipal land. I notice little of the community. I'm quite a loner. When I walk the dog, people are friendly. It has become a reasonably mixed village.
Auto-translated to English by AII notice a lot of incompetence in prejudices about appearance, your dog, waste, other people's belongings, nuisance from cats, poor maintenance of pavements, alleyways without lighting and poor paving. Little information about possible help for the less fortunate. Water damage in gardens and surroundings. Car tyres are always flat in certain parking spots. Setting off fireworks too early. And probably more.
