Buying a house in Tytsjerksteradiel: the housing market in 2026
Tytsjerksteradiel is a green rural municipality in the heart of Fryslân, with around 32,600 residents spread across villages such as Burgum, Hurdegaryp, Eastermar and Earnewâld. The municipality combines rural living with excellent accessibility: via the N356 and N355 you are within a quarter of an hour in Leeuwarden, and the train station in Hurdegaryp offers a direct connection. The Frisian lakes, the Alde Feanen and vast meadows are literally around the corner. This attracts families and movers who are looking for space without leaving the city entirely behind.
The housing market is predominantly owner-occupied: 72% of the more than 14,200 homes are owner-occupied, only 28% are rental. The average WOZ value is €283,000, but actual transaction prices are higher. Over the past twelve months, 110 homes were sold at an average purchase price of €469,536, with a range from €219,000 to €3,950,000. That top segment consists of detached farmhouses and country estates, for which Tytsjerksteradiel is known. The average surface area of sold homes is 172 m², significantly higher than the national average. At the top of this page, view the current supply and time on market to see how the market stands today. On Buurtje.nl, you will find the neighbourhood score and resident reviews for each home, based on more than 1,500 sources, so you can assess not only the house but also the neighbourhood.
The best neighbourhoods to buy a house in Tytsjerksteradiel
The municipality has more than ten villages and cores, each with its own character. From lively Burgum to quiet Ryptsjerk: the differences in atmosphere, price level and amenities are large. Below are the most important neighbourhoods for buyers.
Hurdegaryp, the best-connected village
Hurdegaryp lies directly on the N355 and has its own train station towards Leeuwarden and Groningen. This makes the village popular with commuters. You will find primary schools, a supermarket, sports clubs and a community centre. Residents on Buurtje.nl give Hurdegaryp an 8.2 out of 10, with accessibility particularly highly rated. One resident writes: "Everything is close by, but it still feels like a village." House prices here are around or slightly above the municipal average, mainly due to the favourable location.

Burgum, the amenities centre
Burgum is by far the largest village and functions as the centre of the municipality. Here you will find shopping centre De Lantearne, secondary school CSG Liudger, the town hall and various catering establishments. For families, Burgum is attractive due to the wide range of schools and sports clubs. The neighbourhood score is 6.9 out of 10, which is lower than the smaller villages. Residents mention the amenities as a plus point, but sometimes miss the village peace. In terms of prices, Burgum is relatively accessible: terraced houses and semi-detached houses regularly come on the market that remain below the municipal average of €469,536.

Ryptsjerk, village-like and highly rated
The small Ryptsjerk scores the highest neighbourhood score in the municipality with an 8.6. This is typical ribbon development along the Frisian canal, with many detached houses and spacious plots. Ideal for those who want to live truly rurally and are willing to drive a bit further for daily shopping. The supply is limited, as only a few homes come on the market here each year, and prices are often above average. Those interested can keep an eye on the housing supply in Ryptsjerk.
Earnewâld, living by the water
Earnewâld lies on the edge of national park De Alde Feanen and is known as a water sports village. It attracts buyers who love sailing, nature and peace. The homes range from compact village houses to villas on the water. The village has its own primary school and a small range of shops that increases significantly in summer due to tourism. Prices for water-bound homes can rise considerably. Discover what is for sale in Earnewâld.
Eastermar, active village life
Eastermar is known for its close-knit community and active club life. The village organises the annual Easterbarren and has its own skûtsje. There are primary schools, a community centre and a campsite. For buyers who value community spirit, Eastermar is a good choice. Prices are generally slightly lower than in Hurdegaryp or Earnewâld. View the available homes in Eastermar.
In addition, there are smaller cores worth considering. Aldtsjerk is a picturesque terp village with monumental farmhouses. Sumar offers affordable homes in a quiet environment, and Noordburgum is conveniently located between Burgum and the motorway.

What to look out for when buying a house in Tytsjerksteradiel?
Firstly: the price differences per village are large. A terraced house in Burgum is a very different story from a detached farmhouse in Ryptsjerk or Aldtsjerk. Look carefully at what you are looking for in terms of space, peace and travel time. Hurdegaryp and Burgum are the most convenient if you commute to Leeuwarden daily, while Earnewâld and Eastermar are more remote.
Secondly: pay attention to the condition of the home. Many houses in the smaller villages are older and may have deferred maintenance. The average gas consumption in the municipality is 1,230 m³, which indicates reasonably insulated homes, but always check the energy label. Renovation costs can be lower in this region than in the Randstad, but a structural survey is advisable.
Thirdly: the supply is not large. With 110 sales per year, it is a relatively small market. Popular homes in Hurdegaryp or Burgum can be gone quickly. Be prepared and ensure your financing is in order.
Finally: use the neighbourhood scores and resident reviews on Buurtje.nl to objectively compare villages. Figures on safety, accessibility and amenities help you make a well-considered choice. And also consider renting a home in Tytsjerksteradiel if the purchase market is too tight or you want to get to know the municipality first.

Many social housing units and many single residents. Little greenery. Few children in the neighbourhood. I think the oldest neighbourhood in Burgum. Contact with my neighbours is good. We don't visit each other's homes. We do look out for each other. And I feel safe here. There are no benches or anything in the neighbourhood.

Auto-translated to English by AIExtremely bad. A Pakistani family has been living at number 7 for years and they can do whatever they want. Dealing drugs, weapons in the house. Things have gone wrong here several times with smashed windows and the police constantly driving through the neighbourhood. Our housing association does nothing about it because they just collect the rent, of course. It's driving the whole neighbourhood crazy..
