Lage Weide, Vlaardingen
NeighbourhoodThis 93 m² apartment on Lorentzstraat sits in the Lage Weide neighbourhood, a stone's throw from the green banks of the Vlaardingse Vaart. The home has an E energy label, so heating costs will be something to factor in. At €295,000, the asking price is 18% below the neighbourhood average of €360,265, making it a keen entry into the local market for apartments in Vlaardingen.
Lage Weide is a compact residential area with a mix of low-rise flats and houses, built mostly between 1945 and 1970. Around 44% of homes are owner-occupied, and the streets are lined with mature trees. One resident describes it as a "nice neighbourhood" with a large green field and a small playground for children. The main drawback, they note, is parking: "after half past six in the evening it's very difficult to find a parking spot close to home." The neighbourhood Lage Weide has a moderate urban feel, with an address density of 1,837 per km².
For your morning loaf, MCD is just around the corner, and Dirk and Albert Heijn are a couple of streets away. Three primary schools, De Walvis, IKC de Wereldwijzer, and De Schakel, are all within a five-minute walk, making the school run a doddle. The municipality Vlaardingen also has a park or public garden just a couple of streets away, perfect for a weekend stroll.
At the time of writing the home is listed via Van Herk Makelaars and is also available through several other channels.

The neighbourhood is nice and for our apartment block there is a large green grass field with a small playground for the children. It's just that after half past six in the evening it's very difficult to find a parking spot close to home. My boyfriend often comes home later and then has to park his car outside the neighbourhood on the street of the Auto1st van Toorn garage. It's not nice when you come home around midnight and still have to walk almost 10 minutes.
