Erasmusstraat 1A

At €295,000, this is the cheapest home currently for sale in Balk and 40% below the neighbourhood average asking price of €495,300. However, the floor area of 76 m² is 43% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 134 m². Given the compact size and the fact that it's a semi-detached house from 1925 with energy label D, the price is in line with what you'd expect for a starter home in this village.

The energy label is D. This is a mid-range label, meaning the home is reasonably efficient but not as well insulated as modern homes. Heating costs will be moderate, but you may want to consider improvements like better insulation or a more efficient heating system over time. In the neighbourhood, about 33% of homes have label D or lower, while 22% have label A.

The nearest train station is 15.2 km away, so this is not a commuter-friendly location for train travel. You would need a car or bus to reach the station. The village is better suited for those who work locally or remotely.

There are several primary schools within a five-minute walk: Daltonschool 't Hazzeleger (369 m), Sterrenschool Ludgerus (389 m), and Christelijke Basisschool de Bolster (484 m). Secondary school csg Bogerman Balk is also just around the corner (335 m). All are within easy walking distance.

Lidl and PLUS are both within a couple of streets away, at 361 m and 378 m respectively. That's a five-minute walk for your daily groceries. There's also a SPAR further out at 6.2 km, but the two nearby options cover most needs.

The plot is 120 m², which includes the house footprint. You would need to view the property to assess the garden layout.

Balk recorded 77 total crimes in the latest data, which for a village of 4,300 residents is relatively low. The area feels safe and quiet, typical of a small Frisian village.
