End-of-terrace houses for sale in Heerenveen

End-terrace houses in Heerenveen: what to expect in this market

Heerenveen is not a city where you are overwhelmed with supply. The housing market is balanced, but that doesn't mean end-terrace houses are lying around for the taking. This type of home, with an extra side wall, own driveway or larger garden, attracts many viewers at once. Anyone seriously considering buying an end-terrace house would do well to understand the market thoroughly before responding.

The supply ranges from post-war terraced neighbourhoods with wide plots to quieter suburbs where the plots are larger. End-terrace houses in Heerenveen are predominantly in the mid-range segment. They are popular with families looking for extra outdoor space and with buyers who don't want an apartment but also can't or don't want to pay for a detached house. See the current supply and associated price indications in all homes for sale in Heerenveen at the top of this page.

What you need to know as a buyer of an end-terrace house

An end-terrace house has specific advantages and disadvantages that are less relevant for other types of homes. Keep the following in mind:

• Two external walls, so more maintenance. Painting, pointing and insulation cost more than for a mid-terrace house. Always ask about the condition of both side walls.
• Boundary and right of way. End-terrace houses often border a pavement or public green space. Check the purchase agreement for any easement or right of way for neighbours or the municipality.
• Driveway and parking. An own driveway sounds attractive, but check whether it was constructed without a permit. An illegal driveway can cause problems when selling or renovating.
• Foundation and damp. The side wall is exposed to more weather influence. For older homes, always have a structural survey carried out, specifically focusing on the side wall and the adjacent piece of land.
• Side garden rights. Some end-terrace houses have a strip of land next to the house that formally belongs to the municipality. Check the land registry before making assumptions about the plot size.
• Respond quickly, but not hastily. End-terrace houses in Heerenveen sell quickly. Ensure your financing is in order and that you can quickly call in a buying agent or surveyor. Responding quickly while still acting carefully goes hand in hand if your preparation is in order.
• Use the Buurtje.nl app for push notifications. The app is free and sends you a notification as soon as a new end-terrace house listing appears in Heerenveen. That way you won't miss anything. Download via the App Store or Google Play.

Price level: where do end-terrace houses in Heerenveen sit

End-terrace houses in Heerenveen generally fall into the mid-range segment. They are more expensive than comparable mid-terrace houses on the same street, but cheaper than detached houses. The exact premium depends on a number of factors:

• The size and location of the side plot (corner with garden is worth more than corner with pavement).
• The presence of a driveway or garage.
• The construction period and the condition of the side wall.
• The neighbourhood: in popular areas the asking price rises more quickly.

For the most current price indications, always look at the overview at the top of this page. Prices in Heerenveen are relatively affordable compared to the Randstad, but here too, popular homes sell above the asking price.
