That was 30% below the average asking price in the neighbourhood, which made it a keen buy compared to other apartments in Leeuwarden. This home has not been online since 1 October 2026.
Welgelegen: a neighbourhood of contrasts
Welgelegen is a lively, urban area with a mix of stately houses and smaller workers' cottages. One resident describes it as a "Cosy neighbourhood" with an "Atmospheric neighbourhood with nice neighbours. Houses with a stately character interspersed with smaller workers' cottages. You can feel the history, you can walk straight into the city centre." Another resident, however, calls it "Restless" and notes: "It's fine to live here, as long as you stay in your own house. There are huge drug problems in the neighbourhood and cars speed by. So cats can't safely go outside either." Based on two reviews, the neighbourhood scores a 5.63 out of 10. The area is densely populated, with many single-person households and a young population. For more details, see the neighbourhood Welgelegen page.
