About Tjessingawei 12, Firdgum
The price is on the high side compared to other detached homes in Waadhoeke, but the 4450 m² plot and A++ energy label are exceptional. The house itself is spacious at 284 m² and was built in 1965. Without direct neighbourhood sales data, it is hard to say exactly, but the combination of size, land and efficiency justifies a premium.
The home has an A++ energy label, which is among the best possible. That means very low energy costs for heating and electricity. Given the house was built in 1965, it has clearly been upgraded significantly to reach this level.

The nearest train station is 9.8 km away. That is a drive of about 10-15 minutes.
The closest primary school is Waadwizer at 1.4 km, followed by IKC de Twirre at 1.8 km. Secondary schools are further away, at 7.8 km. Most families with older children will need to drive or arrange transport.

Mortgage options depend on your personal financial situation. The price of €1,275,000 is above the national mortgage guarantee limit, so you would need a larger deposit or a higher income. It is best to speak to a mortgage advisor about your specific case.
