Den Burg, Texel
NeighbourhoodThis 43 m² studio on Kantoorstraat sits right in the middle of Den Burg, the main village on Texel. The building dates from 1955 and has an energy label G, so heating costs will be something to factor in. At €450,000, the asking price is 23% below the neighbourhood average of €583,555, a keen price for a studio in this part of the island. For context, studios in Texel vary widely in size and price.
Den Burg is a close-knit community. One resident describes it as 'a very social neighbourhood! Everyone is there for each other!' Another says it's 'small but cosy and close-knit'. The area is clean and has little trouble with pests, though some residents would like more facilities for young people. The population is mixed, with a fair share of older residents and families. The neighbourhood Den Burg has a village feel while still offering everyday amenities within walking distance.
For daily shopping, Ekoplaza is just around the corner, and Jumbo and Aldi are a couple of streets away. There are several primary schools within a five-minute walk, including Jozefschool Texel and Protestant Christelijke Basisschool De Fontein. Secondary school OSG de Hogeberg is also close by. The municipality Texel covers the whole island, so beaches and nature reserves are never far.
At the time of writing the home is listed through several channels, including VOF Makelaardij Texel Vastgoed.

Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a small but cosy and close-knit community. The area is also clean and there's little trouble with pests. If I could change something, it would be that more facilities are added or that more is done to make sports clubs more well-known and appealing to young people.

About Kantoorstraat 10, Den Burg
The asking price of €450,000 is 23% below the average asking price in Den Burg (€583,555). However, this studio is 43 m², which is 65% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 123 m². The price per square metre works out at about €10,465, which is higher than the neighbourhood average of €5,080 per m². So while the total price is lower, you are paying a premium for the small size.
Energy label G is the lowest rating, meaning the home is not energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with a better label. In Den Burg, only about 21% of homes have a label D or lower, so this studio is among the least efficient in the area. It may be worth considering improvements like insulation or double glazing, but the listing does not state what is already in place.
The nearest train station is 14 km away. That is the distance to the station on the mainland, as Texel is an island without a railway connection. You would need to take a ferry to Den Helder to reach the train network.
Ekoplaza is just 57 metres away, Jumbo at 118 metres, Aldi at 211 metres, and Albert Heijn at 270 metres. All are within a few minutes' walk, so daily groceries are very convenient.
There are several primary schools within about 500 metres: Jozefschool Texel, Protestant Christelijke Basisschool De Fontein, and Vrije School Stella Maris. Secondary school OSG de Hogeberg is about 467 metres away. A school for special primary education, Kompas, is also nearby at 321 metres.
