Voorburg Noord zuid, Leidschendam-Voorburg
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on van Montfoortstraat in Voorburg is a pre-war home with a surprisingly modern energy label A. At 82 m² it's compact compared to the neighbourhood average, and the asking price of €450,000 sits 15% below the average asking price in the area, a keen price for a home that's already efficient. The supply of apartments in Leidschendam-Voorburg is limited, so this combination of character and low running costs stands out.
Voorburg Noord zuid is a mixed area. One resident describes it as "a cosy neighbourhood with a nice park with a playground and for dog owners there is also a spot and it's a social neighbourhood we look out for each other and help each other everyone is always there for one another." Another review is less positive, noting "one-sided, poorly maintained housing with a low energy label for a large part of the street, a lot of litter on the street and in front gardens/planters, parking nuisance due to inadequate enforcement." Based on two reviews, the picture is split. The area is densely built, with mostly pre-war housing and a mix of households, many singles and families with children. For more context, see the Voorburg Noord zuid neighbourhood.
For your morning bread, Jumbo is a five-minute walk away, and Albert Heijn is just around the corner. Primary school De Parachute is a couple of streets away, and secondary schools like Sint-Maartenscollege and Gymnasium Novum are within a ten-minute walk. A park and playground are on your doorstep, and the train station is a ten-minute walk. The area falls under the municipality of Leidschendam-Voorburg, which manages local amenities and parking enforcement, something the reviews suggest could be tighter.
At the time of writing the home is listed through several channels, including Gaaff Wonen Makelaardij.

About van Montfoortstraat 3, Voorburg
The asking price of €450,000 is 15% below the average asking price in the neighbourhood (€531,200) and close to the median sold price of €442,500. Given the compact 82 m² floor area and the excellent energy label A, the price is keen compared to other homes in the area.
The home has energy label A, which is very efficient. This is unusual for a pre-war building, most homes in the neighbourhood (92.9%) were built before 1945 and typically have lower labels. With label A, you can expect relatively low heating costs.
The train station is 1.1 km away, about a ten-minute walk.
