Oud-Wassenaar, Wassenaar
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Van Ommerenlaan sits in a quiet, green part of Wassenaar, a town known for its stately homes and wide avenues. At 128 m², it offers generous living space for a flat, and the 1988 build means solid construction with a B energy label, efficient without being cutting-edge. The asking price of €650,000 is on the high side compared to other apartments in Wassenaar, but the size and location justify a premium.

About Van Ommerenlaan 16, Wassenaar
At 128 m², the price works out at about €5,078 per m². That's on the high side for Wassenaar, but the apartment is spacious and has a good energy label. Without comparable sales in the immediate neighbourhood, it's hard to say exactly, but the size and location in Oud-Wassenaar, a quiet, green area, support the asking price.
The energy label is B, which is efficient. You can expect relatively low heating and electricity costs compared to older homes with labels D or lower. The apartment was built in 1988, so it likely has reasonable insulation and double glazing, though not the latest standards.
The nearest train station is 5.1 km away, so it's not within walking distance. You would need a bike or car to reach it. The area is not well connected by public transport, which is typical for this part of Wassenaar.
Oud-Wassenaar has a relatively small number of families with children, only 60 households out of 385. The area is more popular with older residents and couples without children. There are good schools nearby, but the neighbourhood itself is quiet and not particularly child-oriented.
Yes, the nearest supermarket (Ekoplaza) is about 2.7 km away, which is a 30-minute walk. For daily shopping, you'd probably cycle or drive. There are several supermarkets within 3 km, including SPAR express and Jumbo.
Very safe. The total number of recorded crimes is just 30, which is extremely low for a neighbourhood of this size. It's a quiet, residential area with little to no nuisance.
