Voorstraat 36A
Centrum-West, Delft
NeighbourhoodA classic Delft apartment with character
This 106 m² apartment on Voorstraat sits in the heart of Delft, where the streets hum with students, shoppers and café life. The 1938 building gives it a solid pre-war feel, and with an energy label C it's reasonably efficient for its age. At €615,000, the asking price is above the neighbourhood average of €549,000, but that reflects the generous size and central location. For context, apartments in Delft typically sell for around €6,171 per m², so this one is priced keenly given its 106 m².
Centrum-West: historic, busy, and full of life
Centrum-West is the historic core of Delft, with narrow streets, canals and a dense mix of shops and restaurants. It's a very urban area, over 4,900 addresses per km², and most homes are pre-war. Two residents describe it as a "pleasant and cosy neighbourhood" and "nice, cosy and pleasant", though they note parking is tricky and litter can be an issue. The neighbourhood Centrum-West has a young population, with many students and singles, and average incomes are in line with the city centre.

Experiences from Centrum-West
How residents experience their neighbourhood
Quiet neighbourhood with everything you need nearby. The only hassle is finding parking spaces. There isn't often nuisance or anything.
Auto-translated to English by AIMy neighbourhood is a pleasant, accessible environment. There are many amenities nearby and the shops are easily reachable. However, there is often litter on the street and we have occasionally had mice in the neighbourhood as a result. Placing more bins could possibly prevent this. However, there are very few houses available and everything is unaffordable. Housing could therefore be better.

How residents experience their district
Of ik ergens prettig woon, is voor mij afhankelijk van de omgeving en de buren. Voor mij betekent dit dat er de mogelijkheid is om een wederkerige connectie op te bouwen, die zorgt voor gezelschap en tegelijkertijd bijdraagt aan vertrouwen en een gevoel van veiligheid. Voor de mensen die daar behoefte aan hebben, moet dit in de wijk of straat mogelijk zijn.

Auto-translated to English by AIIt is often dirty, there is a lot of rubbish in my street next to the container, that is the only bad thing, that's why we get vermin in the street, mice, rats for example

Auto-translated to English by AII've lived here since birth and I really like it here. It's always quiet and we're situated behind a bit of nature. Now they're trying to build a restaurant right in front of our house, which is less good because then we'll have people in our garden later in the evening and there'll be no privacy left. Also think of the parking spaces we pay for, which would no longer be available, noise pollution, and so on. So without all that hassle, it's definitely a perfect place to live.
Auto-translated to English by AIA supermarket less than 3 minutes' walk away, neighbours who lend out their deep fryer for New Year's so we could make oliebollen (if they got some too) and a really pleasant atmosphere in the neighbourhood. It's very central and close to everything in Delft. I never feel like I have to be careful with my belongings here, or that someone might break in, lots of children playing in the street and a parking garage for permit holders a 1-minute walk away.
Auto-translated to English by AII think it's a nice neighbourhood. Occasionally inconvenient with the rubbish system and taking the glass away, not a huge amount of green, and sometimes difficult to see streets coming from the right so you don't get priority from others.

Auto-translated to English by AINo sense of community, little contact, also some loitering youths, a lot of litter in the area.. I often clean up rubbish but the next day it's all over the ground again.. experienced a burglary at the neighbours' in broad daylight.. that does create a feeling of insecurity.. In addition, I sometimes have trouble with men following me.. and fireworks are set off all year round, also randomly at 3am.. There are 2 nice playgrounds in the neighbourhood but I often don't find them safe for children because there is too much litter.. think lots of cigarette butts and glass and many other things.. but it's nice that the facility is there

Auto-translated to English by AII think it's a fine neighbourhood, except that I sometimes feel unsafe when I cycle late in the evening. Other than that, I never really have trouble with people. The neighbourhood could be a bit greener in my opinion, but well, it's mostly flats and they're not that pretty.
