Driemanspolder, Zoetermeer
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Graaf Janstraat sits in a lively part of Zoetermeer, with the daily rhythm of the neighbourhood right on your doorstep. At 64 m² it's compact but well laid out, and the price of €275,000 is keen compared to the average asking price in the area. For context, that's about 31% below the neighbourhood average, though the home is also smaller than many others, you're getting a sensible footprint rather than extra square metres. If you're looking at apartments in Zoetermeer, this one stands out for its value.
Driemanspolder has a strong urban feel, it's one of the densest parts of Zoetermeer, with plenty of flats and a mix of ages. The one resident review describes it as 'industrial rather than a neighbourhood', which gives a flavour of the surroundings: lots of practical, no-nonsense streets rather than leafy lanes. That said, the area is well served by shops and schools, and the train station is a ten-minute walk away. It's a place where you're close to everything, even if the aesthetic is more functional than picturesque. For more on the area, have a look at the Driemanspolder neighbourhood.
Your daily bread run is easy: Hoogvliet supermarket is just around the corner, and there's an Aldi and an AH XL within a ten-minute walk. For school runs, the Oranje Nassau College Clauslaan (secondary) is a couple of streets away, and primary schools like IKC Stella Nova and Koningin Wilhelminaschool are within a five-minute walk. The park or public garden is on your doorstep, so there's green space to unwind. All in all, the essentials are close by, and the municipality of Zoetermeer keeps the area well maintained.

About Graaf Janstraat 91, Zoetermeer
The asking price of €275,000 is about 31% below the average asking price in Driemanspolder, which is €399,987. However, this apartment is also smaller than the neighbourhood average (64 m² vs 106 m²). The price per square metre works out at roughly €4,297, which is above the neighbourhood average of €3,807 per m². So while the total price is low, you're paying a premium per square metre for a compact home.
The energy label is D. That's a middling rating, not the most efficient, but not the worst either. In the neighbourhood, about 43% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is fairly typical for the area. You can expect reasonable energy costs, though upgrading insulation or heating could improve efficiency over time.
The nearest train station is 1.6 km away, which is about a 20-minute walk or a short cycle. That makes commuting to The Hague, Leiden or Utrecht quite doable without a car.
