Overveen, Bloemendaal
NeighbourhoodThis 1924 apartment on Adriaan Stooplaan sits in leafy Overveen, a village-like pocket of Bloemendaal. With 69 m² and an energy label B, it's compact but efficient.

The area is strongly urban (density 1956 addresses per km²) but feels green, with a park just a five-minute walk away. Most homes are pre-war (90%), and 84% are owner-occupied, giving the streets a settled feel. The municipality Bloemendaal is known for its high standard of living.
