Auto-translated to English by AIIt'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.

About Julianastraat 5, Den Burg
The asking price is €565,000, which is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €583,555 but below the median of €522,000. However, this is a detached house, and the average price per m² in Den Burg is €5,080. Given that the home is 84 m² (32% smaller than the local average of 123 m²), the price per m² works out higher. The energy label D also means heating costs will be higher than in better-rated homes.
The energy label is D. In Den Burg, about 21% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is on the less efficient side. You can expect higher energy bills compared to a home with label A or B. The neighbourhood has a mix: 26% label A, 23% label B, 19% label C, and 21% label D or lower.
The nearest train station is 14 km away. That's because Den Burg is on the island of Texel, which has no rail connection. You would need to take a bus or drive to the ferry and then to the mainland station.
