Dorp is a lively, compact neighbourhood with a real village feel. One resident describes it as a "super cosy neighbourhood with the shops and restaurants", and that sums it up well. The area is densely built (2,938 addresses per km²) and very urban, with a mix of ages: many families with children, but also a large share of singles and older residents. Around two-thirds of homes are owner-occupied, and the streets are safe and walkable. This is a place where daily life happens on foot. Read more about the neighbourhood Dorp.
Your morning bread run is just around the corner at Ekoplaza, and for bigger shops Hoogvliet is a five-minute walk away. There are several primary schools within a couple of streets: Basisschool De Vijverburgh and Katholieke basisschool De Paulusschool are both about 600 m away. For secondary education, Praktijkcollege Zoetermeer and Picasso Lyceum are also within walking distance. The municipality Zoetermeer offers plenty of green space too, with a park just 500 m from your door.

About Vermeerstraat 19, Zoetermeer
At €275,000, this is the cheapest home currently for sale in Dorp and 36% below the neighbourhood's average asking price of €429,450. Given the 67 m² floor area and E energy label, the price is keen compared to other listings in the area. However, the low energy label means higher heating costs, which is something to factor in.
