Roland Holstbuurt, Delft
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Roland Holstlaan sits in a lively part of Delft, with a shopping centre and several supermarkets just around the corner. At 75 m² it's a compact home, and the asking price of €289,500 is noticeably lower than the neighbourhood average, about 20% below the typical €363,000. That makes it a keenly priced option compared to other apartments in Delft.
The neighbourhood Roland Holstbuurt is a densely built area with mostly flats and a young population, many students and people in their twenties. One resident describes it as a "Diverse neighbourhood" but notes: "Unfortunately, there is nuisance in the neighbourhood and mainly in my building from loitering youths, fatbikers and junkies." The review also mentions problems with drug use on the stairs and package theft. It's a mixed picture: plenty of amenities within walking distance, but the living experience depends heavily on your specific building.
For daily shopping, the AH XL is on your doorstep, with Lidl and Dirk just a couple of streets away. IKC De Eglantier Voorhof primary school is a five-minute walk, and the Christelijk Lyceum Delft secondary school is about the same distance.

Satisfactory · 1 resident
In the neighbourhood you have many amenities within walking distance, a shopping centre with many types of shops and several supermarkets. Unfortunately, there is nuisance in the neighbourhood and mainly in my building from loitering youths, fatbikers and junkies. I have encountered people on the stairs several times who were using drugs (crack). The fire escape is full of (stolen) stuff and other rubbish. Many packages are stolen in the building. The neighbourhood sometimes experiences nuisance from students (of which I am a part, not the nuisance).

About Roland Holstlaan 833, Delft
The asking price is about 20% below the average asking price in the Roland Holstbuurt (€363,000) and also below the median of €325,000. However, the apartment is smaller than the neighbourhood average (75 m² vs 101 m²). Given the lower price per square metre (€3,860 vs the neighbourhood average of €3,682), it appears priced, though the condition and exact location within the building are factors to consider.
The energy label is C. This is a mid-range label, meaning the home has reasonable insulation but is not as efficient as modern standards. Heating costs will be moderate. In the neighbourhood, about 19% of homes have label C, while 62% have a label D or lower, so this apartment is slightly better than average for the area.
The nearest train station is 1.1 km away, about a ten-minute walk. This gives direct connections to The Hague, Rotterdam, and other cities.
The neighbourhood has a high proportion of one-person households (about 52%) and a large student population (33% aged 15-25). The only resident review mentions nuisance from loitering youths and drug use in the building, but also notes that amenities are excellent. It's a diverse area with a mix of students and long-term residents.
In the Roland Holstbuurt, sold homes took an average of 39 days to sell. This is a reasonable timeframe, suggesting a balanced market without extreme pressure. The current listing is priced below average, which may attract interest.
