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 Molenstraat 59, Den Burg
The asking price of €425,000 is 27% below the average asking price in Den Burg (€583,555) and also under the median of €522,000. Given the 144 m² floor area and 149 m² plot, the price per m² works out at about €2,951, which is well below the neighbourhood average of €5,080 per m². So it is priced on the low side compared to other homes currently for sale.
The home has energy label C. That means it has reasonable insulation and energy efficiency, but not the highest standards. You can expect moderate energy bills. In Den Burg, about 19% of homes have label C, while over 60% have A or B labels, so this home is slightly less efficient than the average in the neighbourhood.
The nearest train station is 14 km away. That is because Den Burg is on the island of Texel, which has no railway connection. You would need to take a bus or drive to the ferry and then to the mainland station.
Den Burg scores 8.14 out of 10 from three reviews. Residents describe it as a social, close-knit community where neighbours help each other. One says: 'We have a very social neighbourhood! Everyone is there for each other!' Another notes it is 'small but cosy' and clean. The population is diverse, with many families and older residents.

Jumbo and Ekoplaza are both about 334 metres away, so just a few minutes' walk. Aldi is 512 metres and Albert Heijn is 587 metres. That gives you several options for daily groceries without needing a car.
The house was built in 1912, so it is over a century old. It has energy label C, which suggests some modernisation has been done, but you should expect the character and quirks of an older home. The listing does not mention any recent renovations, so it is worth viewing to assess the condition yourself.
