About Kikkertstraat 71, De Cocksdorp
The asking price of €432,000 is in line with the market for semi-detached homes in Texel. The home has 163 m² of living space and a 281 m² plot, which is generous. However, the E energy label means higher energy costs, so factor that into your budget.
De Cocksdorp is a quiet village with about 550 residents. It has many single-person households and a significant number of older residents. The area is not very urban, with a low address density. Residents describe it as peaceful and close-knit.
The nearest supermarket is the PLUS, located about 550 metres away, which is a five-minute walk. There is also a SPAR about 1.3 km away. Both are within easy reach for daily groceries.
The closest primary school is Openbare Basisschool Durperhonk, about 530 metres away. There are no secondary schools within 5 km; the nearest is OSG de Hogeberg, about 12.9 km away, so secondary school children would need to travel.
The home has an energy label E, which means it is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating and electricity costs compared to a home with a better label. It may be worth considering improvements like insulation or solar panels.
The nearest train station is about 27.5 km away, so the home is not well connected by rail. You would likely rely on a car or bus for longer journeys. The village itself is quiet and walkable.
The home was built in 1860, so it has historic character. The listing does not specify the condition, but with an E energy label, some modernisation may be needed.
