Ministersbuurt-Oost, Delft
NeighbourhoodThis 1933 apartment on Hof van Delftlaan sits in a leafy part of Delft, with a Coop supermarket just around the corner. At 108 m² and with energy label D, it's a solid home that needs a bit of attention on heating costs. The asking price of €395,000 is keen compared to the neighbourhood average of €619,500, partly because the flat is smaller than many family homes in the area. For context, apartments in Delft vary widely in price and size.
Ministersbuurt-Oost is a dense, urban neighbourhood with a mix of families and singles. Based on two reviews, opinions differ sharply. One resident says: "I've lived here for 20 years and have always enjoyed it. The neighbours are friendly and everything is within easy cycling distance." Another is less positive: "People live past each other. Shit everywhere, owners don't clean up anything. Playgrounds nothing." The area has a high proportion of pre-war housing (over 90%) and a strong urban feel, with many one-person households. The neighbourhood Ministersbuurt-Oost is close to the city centre but has its own character.
For your morning bread, the Coop is 18 metres away, literally on your doorstep. Albert Heijn is a five-minute walk. Schools are also close: the International School Delft is a couple of streets away, and Vrijeschool Widar primary school is within a five-minute walk. The neighbourhood has a park or public garden just around the corner, and a restaurant within a five-minute walk. The municipality Delft offers a compact, bike-friendly environment.

I've lived here for 20 years and have always enjoyed it. The neighbours are friendly and everything is within easy cycling distance. Unfortunately, there is little housing available here; I want to move out with my boyfriend (we live with my parents) but you can't get a house here, unfortunately.
Auto-translated to English by AIPeople live past each other. Shit everywhere, owners don't clean up anything. Playgrounds nothing. Cyclists ride very fast, young people from the higher school ride three or four abreast, cheeky. More playgrounds for kids, more green in the neighbourhood, and that dog owners clean up their dog's shit‼️ And a smile costs nothing

About Hof van Delftlaan 80, Delft
The asking price of €395,000 is 36% below the neighbourhood average of €619,500, but this apartment is also smaller than many homes in the area. The average price per m² in the buurt is €5,583, so at €3,657 per m² this flat is priced below that benchmark. Given the energy label D and the 1933 construction, the price reflects the need for potential energy upgrades.
The energy label is D, which is average for a pre-war home. In the neighbourhood, 22.2% of homes have label D or lower, while 33.3% have label B and 33.3% have label C. A D label means higher energy costs than modern homes, so you should budget for heating and possible improvements.
