About Rijksweg 138, Jirnsum
The asking price is €585,000, which is about 16% above the average sale price of €503,800 for homes sold recently in Jirnsum. However, this is a large detached house (287 m²) with a generous plot, so the premium reflects its size and character. The energy label E means higher running costs, which may be a factor in negotiations.
The energy label is E, which indicates the home is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating and electricity bills compared to a more modern home. The neighbourhood has no homes with label A or B, so this is typical for the area. Improving the insulation could reduce costs and increase comfort.
The nearest train station is 2.8 km from the house, which is about a 35-minute walk or a 5-minute bike ride. It connects to the regional rail network, making it possible to commute to larger cities like Leeuwarden.
