Burgum, Tytsjerksteradiel
NeighbourhoodThis corner house on Minister van den Brinklaan sits in a quiet part of Burgum, a village with a strong sense of community. With 165 m² of living space on a 230 m² plot, it is a roomy home for a family or anyone who values space. At €400,000 it is the most expensive of the three homes currently for sale in the neighbourhood, but the size puts it in a different league, the average home here is 110 m², so you get a lot more square metres for your money. For context, end-of-terrace houses in Tytsjerksteradiel vary widely, and this one is priced keenly given its generous floor area.
Burgum is a village of nearly 10,000 people, with a mix of ages and household types. One resident describes it as a "cosy peaceful neighbourhood with nice people and many amenities", while another notes that there are "many social housing units and many single residents" and "little greenery". The reviews, four in total, give an average score of 6.88 out of 10, reflecting a place that feels safe and neighbourly, even if it is not the greenest corner of Friesland. The municipality Tytsjerksteradiel covers a wider rural area, but Burgum itself is the main village with most facilities within walking distance.
For your morning bread, Aldi and Jumbo are both just around the corner, and PLUS is a couple of streets away. There are several primary schools nearby, including Christelijke Basisschool De Reinbôge on your doorstep, and secondary schools such as OSG Singelland and CSG Liudger within a five-minute walk. A park or public garden is just a couple of streets away, so a quick stroll for fresh air is easy. The village centre with restaurants and a library is also within a ten-minute walk.

Many social housing units and many single residents. Little greenery. Few children in the neighbourhood. I think the oldest neighbourhood in Burgum. Contact with my neighbours is good. We don't visit each other's homes. We do look out for each other. And I feel safe here. There are no benches or anything in the neighbourhood.

About Minister van den Brinklaan 74, Burgum
At €400,000 it is the most expensive of the three homes currently for sale in Burgum, but it is also the largest by a clear margin. The average sold price in the neighbourhood is €384,357, and the average price per m² is €3,494. With 165 m², the price per m² works out at about €2,424, which is well below the neighbourhood average, so you are getting more space for your money.
The home has energy label C. That is a decent rating for a house built in 1971, it means the property is reasonably efficient, though not as good as modern standards. You can expect moderate energy costs, but it is worth noting that 80% of homes sold recently in the neighbourhood have label B or better, so this one is a step behind the local average.
Burgum has a mix of households: about a third have children, a third are couples without children, and a third are single-person households. There are playgrounds and community centres, as residents mention. One review highlights "many playgrounds" and "many shops", while another notes "few children in the neighbourhood". So it is not a family-only area, but there are facilities for children.
The nearest train station is 5.5 km away. That is a short drive or a bike ride of about 20 minutes. Burgum is not directly connected by rail, so for commuting you would likely need a car or bus to the station.
The listing does not mention a garden, but the plot is 230 m². That is a generous size for a corner house, so there is outdoor space, but whether it is laid out as a garden, patio or something else is not stated. You would need to view the property to see how the plot is used.
With 165 m² of living space over what is likely two floors, there is room for several bedrooms, but the exact layout is not provided.
