Zanderij, Katwijk
NeighbourhoodThis two-bedroom apartment on Parnassia feels light and efficient, with 61 m² of well-laid-out space and an A energy label that keeps running costs low. Built in 2010, it sits in a quiet part of Zanderij, a neighbourhood where most homes are terraced houses and families make up the majority. At €375,000, the asking price is 45% below the neighbourhood average of €687,000, a keen entry point into a market where the median is €650,000. For context, apartments in Katwijk typically sell for less than the area's family homes, but this one is priced well under the local average per square metre too.
Zanderij scores a 7.44 out of 10 from two resident reviews. One resident describes it as "a very involved neighbourhood" where "you speak to almost everyone and everyone is very friendly." They note there is greenery, though they'd like more, and mention several schools to choose from. Another resident calls it "an involved village" that is "usually cosy" but sometimes feels a bit unsafe, overall "absolutely great." The neighbourhood Zanderij is home to about 3,200 people, mostly families, with a high proportion of owner-occupied homes (74%) and a low crime rate of 80 incidents per year.
For your morning bread, the Coop is just around the corner, with Dirk and Lidl a couple of streets away. The Julianaschool Rijnsburg is a ten-minute walk, and the Teylingen College for secondary education is about the same distance. A park or public garden is on your doorstep, and a GP surgery is a couple of streets away.

My experience is that you speak to almost everyone in the neighbourhood and everyone is very friendly. Sometimes there are loitering youths but usually it's quiet. There is greenery but it could always be more! There are many terraced houses so there is plenty of space but also a number of large houses where actually many more houses could have been built. There are several schools to choose from so that's good!

About Parnassia 397, Katwijk
The asking price of €375,000 is 45% below the average asking price in Zanderij (€687,000) and well under the median of €650,000. However, this apartment is also smaller than the neighbourhood average (61 m² vs 131 m²). Given the modern build, A energy label, and the fact that similar apartments in Katwijk tend to be cheaper than family homes, the price appears keen, in line with what you'd expect for a compact, energy-efficient flat.
