Welgelegen, Leeuwarden
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Rembrandtstraat sits in a stately 1913 building with a modern energy label A. At 139 m² it is a good deal larger than the average home in Welgelegen, and the €349,000 price tag is 28% above the neighbourhood average of €271,750, reflecting the extra space and efficiency. For context, the apartments in Leeuwarden vary widely, so this one stands out for its combination of size and low energy costs.
Welgelegen is a dense, very urban area (over 3,900 addresses per km²) with a mix of stately houses and smaller workers' cottages. One resident calls it a "Cosy neighbourhood" and says: "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 review, titled "Restless", 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." The neighbourhood Welgelegen has many one-person households and a young population, with a quarter of homes owner-occupied.
For groceries, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and Jumbo and Lidl are a couple of streets away. Primary school IKC de Kinderkoepel is a five-minute walk, while secondary schools like CSG Comenius Mariënburg are a ten-minute walk. The municipality Leeuwarden offers a lively city centre within walking distance, with restaurants and a park nearby.
At the time of writing the home is listed via several channels, including Makelaardij Friesland Drachten and Makelaardij Friesland.
