Frequently asked questions
About Klaverweide 305, Ballum
Is €795,000 a fair price for this home?
The price is on the high side compared to other homes in the area, but the large plot of 828 m² is exceptional for a detached house on Ameland. The energy label C means moderate efficiency, and the home is from 1966, so some renovation may be expected. Given the island's limited supply, the price reflects the unique location and plot size.
What is the neighbourhood like?
Verspreide huizen Ballum is a very small, rural community with only 70 residents. It scores high on togetherness and safety, as one resident notes: 'A lot of togetherness and safety; if something is wrong, we help each other.' The area is not urban at all, with low address density, and most homes are owner-occupied single-family houses.
How far is the nearest train station?
The nearest train station is 41 km away, which means you would need to take a ferry to the mainland and then travel further. This home is best suited for those who rely on a car or bicycle for island transport.
What schools are nearby?
The closest primary school is Openbare Basisschool 't Ienster, about 800 metres away. Two other primary schools are within 4 km. For secondary education, the nearest school is 5.5 km away, so a longer commute is needed.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is C, which is average for a home of this age. You can expect reasonable insulation and heating costs, but not the highest efficiency. Improvements like better glazing or a heat pump could lower energy bills.
Is there a garden?
Given the size, there is plenty of outdoor space around the home.
