Method: each source value is adjusted from its valuation date to current prices using the CBS price index for existing owner-occupied homes (by province, or by city for Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Den Haag and Utrecht; the national monthly index is used for the most recent months). The midpoint is the weighted average; the range reflects the variation between sources (at least 5%). The home's condition, location along the street, ground lease and individual features are not taken into account. This is not a valuation.

Plot, soil and planning designation
Within a conservation area: the streetscape is preserved, but extra rules apply to façades, roofs and window frames. Foundation problems are uncommon in this neighbourhood. The ground is subsiding slightly, as in many peat and clay areas; expect to raise garden levels and re-lay paving occasionally.

Energy and heating
An energy-inefficient home: high energy bills, draughts and cold walls in winter, and often too warm in summer. Budget tens of thousands of euros for energy improvements, with ISDE subsidies available, and expect a lower WWS points score if letting it out. Banks often assume higher housing costs for these homes. Annual energy costs for a comparable home are around € 1.364 more than for the average home in Franeker Binnenstad.
Energy label
G provisional label

An energy label of E, F or G deducts 4 to 15 points from the home's WWS rent assessment; energy efficiency improvements (insulation, heat pump) are eligible for an ISDE subsidy.

In the neighbourhood of Franeker Binnenstad, 42% of homes have higher noise levels than at this address; the average there is 55 dB.
Moderate: audible traffic, as on a through road in a residential neighbourhood. Barely noticeable indoors with the windows closed; sitting outside is pleasant, but it is never completely quiet. The main source is road traffic (53 dB).
Source and methodology
Lden: annual average noise exposure across the day, evening and night (RIVM noise maps 2020, air traffic 2022, wind turbines 2024, 10 m grid). A rough guide, not a measurement at the façade. The WHO recommends a maximum of 53 dB for road traffic and 45 dB for air traffic.
Flooding
0,28 m Limited
If this area floods, the maximum water depth map shows that water here could reach a depth of 0,28 m.
- Homes in Franeker Binnenstad that could flood
- 96%
- Of these: water depths over 0.5 m
- 53%
- Maximum depth in the neighbourhood
- 1,62 m
Limited: floodwater can reach knee height in the street. This means wet crawl spaces and gardens, but rarely damage to living areas. A raised threshold and a dry crawl space help limit the damage. The likelihood of this happening is extremely low (less than 1 in 30,000 per year): the depth indicates what would happen in a flood, while the likelihood indicates how often.
Source and methodology
LIWO (Rijkswaterstaat), maximum flood depth map, 25 m grid; flood probability: Klimaateffectatlas. The depth does not indicate how likely flooding is; dykes and flood barriers are designed to account for that probability.
Air quality
- NO₂ 6,0 µg/m³ within WHO guidelines
- PM2,5 6,3 µg/m³ above WHO guidelines
- PM10 12,6 µg/m³ within WHO guidelines
Polluted air: above the European limits for 2030, usually due to a nearby busy road, industry or intensive livestock farming. This matters for people with respiratory problems and for young children; ventilating on the quieter side of the home helps.
Average in Franeker Binnenstad: NO₂ 6,0, PM2.5 6,3 µg/m³.

Annual average concentrations at 25 m resolution (RIVM, latest map). Marker on the bar: WHO guideline value (NO₂ 10, PM2.5 5, PM10 15 µg/m³); the colour shows the comparison with the WHO guideline and the EU limit for 2030.
Light at night
Dim
darkvery bright
Average in Franeker Binnenstad: dim.
Dim: some street lighting, but no glow over the neighbourhood. Good for sleep, although the Milky Way is no longer visible here.
Source and methodology
Upward artificial light measured by satellites (RIVM light emission map 2023, 375 m grid), classified relative to all homes in the Netherlands: dark means the darkest 20%, very bright the brightest 10%.
Green space in the neighbourhood
39% green space within 500 m
Average in Franeker Binnenstad: 41%.
Little greenery: mostly paving and rooftops, with few gardens or trees. These neighbourhoods heat up more in summer and feel busier; adding greenery yourself, such as a planting strip along the front wall or trees, makes an immediate difference.
Source and methodology
Proportion of green space (grass, shrubs and trees) in the 500 m grid cell around this address (RIVM green space map 2022). Half of homes in the Netherlands have more than 52% green space within 500 m; one in ten has less than 32%.
Air traffic above this address
During the monitoring period, no aircraft were detected below 3,000 m within 2 km of this address: air traffic has no impact on daily life here.

As a rule of thumb, a passenger aircraft at an altitude of 1,000 m produces a peak outdoor noise level of around 60–65 dB (a loud conversation), rising to 75–80 dB at 300 m. Above 3,000 m, it blends into the background noise.
Source and methodology
ADS-B position reports broadcast by aircraft via the open networks adsb.lol and adsb.fi. Every 5 minutes, Huisleon takes a snapshot of all aircraft below 3,000 m over the Netherlands and uses their measured speeds to estimate the number of flights passing within 2 km. Military aircraft and some small aircraft do not broadcast their positions and are not included. Noise contours: RIVM Atlas Leefomgeving, air traffic 2022.
