De Koog, Texel
NeighbourhoodThis two-room apartment on Badweg in De Koog is a classic holiday-home style property, right in the heart of the island's most popular village. At 49 m² it's compact but perfectly formed, with an E energy label meaning you'll want to budget for heating. The asking price of €299,000 is on the high side compared to other apartments in Texel, reflecting the prime tourist location.
De Koog is Texel's main seaside resort, with a lively centre packed with restaurants, shops and bars. The neighbourhood has around 1,040 residents, many of them over 45, and a mix of families and singles. It's a place where life revolves around the beach and the dunes, the nearest restaurant is just a couple of streets away. There are no resident reviews available for this neighbourhood De Koog, but the atmosphere is unmistakably holiday-oriented.
For your daily bread, Lidl and Jumbo are both just around the corner, and the SPAR is a ten-minute walk away. The Lubertischool primary school is also a five-minute walk, making the school run a doddle. For secondary education you'd need to head to Den Burg, about 7 km away. The municipality Texel covers the whole island, so everything from the ferry to the nature reserves is part of the same municipality.
At the time of writing the home is listed via Kortekaas & Kooijman makelaars en taxateurs and also appears on Funda, so it's available through several channels.

About Badweg 72, De Koog
At 49 m² and with an E energy label, the price of €299,000 is on the high side compared to other apartments in Texel. You're paying a premium for the location in De Koog, right near the beach and village centre. Without comparable sales data for the immediate neighbourhood, it's hard to say exactly how it stacks up, but the asking price reflects the holiday-home market.
The energy label is E, which means the home is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a modern, well-insulated home. The building dates from 1965, so it's likely to have single glazing and limited insulation. If you're planning to live here year-round, factor in those energy bills.
The beach in De Koog is about 500 metres from Badweg, so it's a five-minute walk. The dunes are even closer. That's the big draw of this location, you can be on the sand in no time.
Lidl and Jumbo supermarkets are both within 400 metres, so daily shopping is easy on foot. There's also a SPAR about 4 km away. The village centre with restaurants, cafes and souvenir shops is just around the corner, the nearest restaurant is 300 metres away. A primary school is also within walking distance.
The nearest train station is 19.4 km away, so that's not practical for daily commuting. Most residents rely on a car or bicycle to get around Texel.
The CBS data records 81 total crimes in the neighbourhood, but without a breakdown it's hard to judge. De Koog is a tourist village, so it's generally quiet outside the summer season. The area feels safe, with a mix of permanent residents and holiday homes.
