Voorburg Noord zuid, Leidschendam-Voorburg
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Koningin Wilhelminalaan in Voorburg dates from 1931 and has an energy label E, so heating costs are something to be aware of. At €425,000, the asking price is about 20% below the average for apartments in Leidschendam-Voorburg, which makes it a keen entry point into the market.
The neighbourhood gets mixed reviews from its two residents. One says it 'could use some maintenance', pointing to poorly maintained housing, litter, parking nuisance and noise from the A12. The other describes it as 'a cosy neighbourhood with a nice park with a playground and for dog owners there is also a spot and it's a social neighbourhood we look out for each other'. The area is densely built with mostly pre-war homes, and the neighbourhood Voorburg Noord zuid has a very high address density, typical of a strongly urban setting.
For daily shopping, you have a Jumbo about a ten-minute walk away and an Albert Heijn just a couple of streets further. The nearest primary school, De Parachute, is on your doorstep, and secondary schools like Sint-Maartenscollege and Gymnasium Novum are within a five- to ten-minute walk. The municipality Leidschendam-Voorburg also has a park and a playground just around the corner.

- one-sided, poorly maintained housing with a low energy label for a large part of the street - a lot of litter on the street and in front gardens/planters - parking nuisance due to inadequate enforcement, especially commercial vans of people who largely do not live on this street / parking on corners and pavements (also trucks) and in the green zone because the vans are too long for a regular spot / broken kerbstones - public transport at least a fifteen-minute walk away - noise pollution from the Utrechtsebaan (A12) / all apartments on the top floor exceed the noise standard

About Koningin Wilhelminalaan 423, Voorburg
The asking price of €425,000 is about 20% below the average asking price of €531,200 in the neighbourhood. However, the apartment is also 29% smaller than the average home in the area (86 m² versus 121 m²). Given the energy label E and the mixed resident reviews, the price seems in line with what you get.
The energy label is E, which means the home is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with a better label. In the neighbourhood, half of the homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for the area.
The nearest train station is 1.1 km away, which is about a fifteen-minute walk. One resident mentioned that public transport is at least a fifteen-minute walk away, so that matches.
Residents have mixed views. One says it's a social neighbourhood where people look out for each other, while another mentions issues like litter and parking nuisance. The area has a mix of households, with many singles and families with children.
