Water Villa in Balk with Private Jetty

Step into comfort at this beautifully designed water villa in Balk, ideal for 6 adults and 2 children. Set within a quiet, small-scale villa park with direct access to the Slotermeer, this home comes with its own private jetty—perfect for boating enthusiasts. Inside, you’ll find a bright open-concept living room with cozy seating, a Smart TV, and a spacious dining area. The modern kitchen is fully equipped, while the ground-floor en-suite bedroom offers comfort and privacy. Upstairs, three stylish bedrooms and two bathrooms ensure a restful stay for everyone.

Nestled in the heart of Friesland’s lake district, the villa is a gateway to both relaxation and exploration. The historic village of Balk, just minutes away, is set along the scenic Luts River—part of the famous Eleven Cities Route. Enjoy a peaceful stroll along the canal, browse local shops, or sip coffee on a waterside terrace. Nearby, discover the fairytale beauty of Sloten or immerse yourself in the rich heritage of Hindeloopen. From sailing schools to cycling paths and UNESCO treasures, this region is packed with adventure and charm.

When it’s time to eat, you're spoiled for choice. Savor lakefront dining at Badmeester Keimpe, just 2 km away, with sweeping views over the Slotermeer. Or wander into Balk and enjoy the welcoming ambiance of Hotel Restaurant Teernstra by the river.
