Estate agent in Laren
Laren is the village of the Brink, of the painters of the Laren School and of the Singer museum. Around the Brink lies a protected village view with old farmhouses and village houses, and around that villa areas with large plots, lots of green and the heath within cycling distance.
The market in Laren is about location. A house within walking distance of the Brink, a villa on a quiet lane towards the heath and a house on the main road each have their own price and their own buyer.
Four things buyers in Laren look at
Brink, lane or edge
The closer to the Brink and the shops, the smaller the plot usually is and the higher the price per square metre. On the lanes towards the heath, privacy counts most.
Land and trees
A large plot with mature trees and a south-facing garden determines a large part of the value in Laren. Trees can be protected, and a buyer wants to know that before making plans.
Village view and zoning
Around the Brink the rules of the protected village view apply; elsewhere the zoning plan determines how large you may build. What is still possible on a plot feeds straight into the price.
Pre-war villas
Many villas in Laren were built before the war. Insulation, installations and the roof are the items buyers cost out with these houses.
About buying and selling in Laren
What is my house in Laren worth?
That is mainly determined by the location and the plot, and then by the condition of the house. We first come to meet you, then look at what has been paid in your part of Laren.
May I extend my house or replace it with a new one?
That depends on the zoning plan, whether the house is in the protected village view and whether it is a monument itself. We check that per plot, because it partly determines what a buyer will pay.
Can you also sell my home in Amsterdam?
Yes, we often do. We sell your home in the city and guide the purchase in Laren in the same hands, and align the two completion dates.
