Zilverstraat 27

The asking price is 65% above the neighbourhood average of €409,194, but the floor area is 32% larger than the local average of 179 m². The price per m² works out to about €2,860, which is above the neighbourhood average of €2,516 per m². So it's on the high side, but you're paying for significantly more space.

The energy label is D. That's a middling rating, not particularly efficient, but not the worst. In the neighbourhood, 47% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is fairly typical for an older property. You can expect moderate heating costs, but nothing extreme.

The house was built in 1900, so it's over 120 years old. In the neighbourhood, 90% of homes date from before 1945, so this is very much in line with the area. The energy label D suggests some modernisation has been done, but you'd want to check the specific condition of the roof, windows and heating system.

Franeker Binnenstad is a historic, compact neighbourhood with a mix of residents. It's relatively quiet, with many older residents and single-person households. Amenities like supermarkets, schools and the train station are within walking distance. The area has a village feel despite being urban.

The train station is 1 km away, about a ten-minute walk.

There are several primary schools within walking distance: IKC de Korendrager is 126 m away, Openbare Basisschool De Steven is 452 m, and Basisschool De Kabas is 467 m. Secondary education is 1.6 km away.

In the past period, 30 homes were sold in the neighbourhood at an average price of €342,099 and an average time on market of 86 days. This home's asking price is well above that average, but it's also larger and more distinctive than most.
