Upsides

- Excellent location near forests, a golf course, and outdoor recreation facilities, ideal for nature enthusiasts and active families.
- The electrical system has been upgraded to a 3-phase 25A connection, making the property ready for future sustainability improvements such as solar panels, a heat pump, or an EV charging station.

- The second floor kitchen block is described as simple with only a sink, suggesting it may not function as a proper kitchen without additional investment.
- The asking price of €699,000 translates to approximately €3,883 per square meter, which may be considered relatively high for a property built in 1981.
- The detached shed is described as having no insulation, which limits its usability for storage of temperature-sensitive items or potential conversion to a workspace.
