A historic apartment in the heart of Den Burg

This 17th-century apartment on Gravenstraat sits right in the middle of Den Burg, the main town on Texel. With 132 m² of living space, it's a generous home for a couple or small family. The energy label is F, which means heating costs will be significant, something to factor in. At €595,000, the price is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €583,555, but the historic character and central location explain that. For context, apartments in Texel vary widely in price and size.

Small but cosy

It's a small but cosy and close-knit community. The area is also clean and there's little trouble with pests. If I could change something, it would be that more facilities are added or that more is done to make sports clubs more well-known and appealing to young people.

Frequently asked questions

About Gravenstraat 5, Den Burg

Is €595,000 a fair price for this apartment?

The asking price is €595,000, which is slightly above the average sale price in Den Burg (€583,555) and well above the median (€522,000). However, this is a spacious 132 m² apartment in a historic building from 1680, which is rare. The price per m² works out at about €4,508, which is below the neighbourhood average of €5,080 per m², so you're getting more space for your money.

What does energy label F mean for my bills?

Energy label F indicates poor energy efficiency. The home will have higher heating costs compared to better-rated properties. In Den Burg, only about 20.9% of homes have a label D or lower, so this apartment is less efficient than most. You should expect significant energy expenses, especially in winter.

How old is the building and what does that mean?

The apartment was built in 1680, making it over 340 years old. In Den Burg, 23.1% of homes date from before 1945, so this is one of the older properties. Historic buildings often have character features like high ceilings or original beams, but may also require more maintenance and have less insulation.

What is the neighbourhood like?

Den Burg is a social and close-knit community, according to residents. One says: 'We have a very social neighbourhood! Everyone is there for each other!' Another describes it as 'small but cosy'. The area is clean with little trouble from pests. The neighbourhood scores 8.14 out of 10 from three reviews.

How far is the train station?

The nearest train station is 14 km away. This is not within walking distance, so you would need a car or bus to reach it. Den Burg is on an island, so public transport connections to the mainland are limited.

What shops and schools are nearby?

Several supermarkets are within a few minutes' walk: Ekoplaza (134 m), Jumbo (146 m), Aldi (321 m) and Albert Heijn (383 m). Primary schools like Jozefschool Texel and PCBS De Fontein are about 400 m away, and secondary school OSG de Hogeberg is 415 m away. A restaurant, library and park are all within a ten-minute walk.
