        abstract = {Existing literature varies in conclusions about the impact of accessibility on house prices. This paper aims to discuss what the impact of highway accessibility is on house prices, based on a case study in Friesland, a province in the north of the Netherlands. It does so by trying to answer the main research question: How can house prices in the province of Friesland be explained by highway accessibility? Data from the NVM provides data on properties and their transaction prices for 88.728 cases for the years 2004-2020. Using topographic maps and satellite images, infrastructure in Friesland has been studied as infrastructure has been developing over those past sixteen years. Results from the multilinear regression indicate that there is a positive linear relationship between house prices and the distance between properties and the nearest highway ramps in the province of Friesland. Results also indicate that living further away from the highway ramp, generates a higher house price than living closer to the highway ramp, although the impact seems limited.}
