Naaldwijk Centrumgebied, Westland
NeighbourhoodThis modern apartment on Zuidbrug is part of a recent development completed in 2023, so everything is fresh and energy-efficient. With 47 m² of living space, it's compact but well laid out, and the A++ energy label means very low heating bills. The asking price of €325,000 is keen compared to the neighbourhood average of €574,750, partly because of the smaller size. For context, apartments in Westland tend to be larger and more expensive.
The Naaldwijk Centrumgebied neighbourhood is the historic centre of Naaldwijk, with a dense urban feel (address density 2,421 per km²). It's a mix of ages: a quarter of homes were built before 1945, but 16% are from after 2010. The population is diverse, with many singles and a significant share of over-65s. Residents give it a 7.25 out of 10 based on three reviews. One resident says: "Few problems here. Only parking on the street is difficult." Another notes: "Quiet neighbourhood. Few problems here." A third is less positive: "I think it's a messy neighbourhood, a lot of nuisance."
For your morning bread run, Dirk is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn and Jumbo are a couple of streets away. Primary school Christelijke Basisschool de Ouverture is a five-minute walk, and secondary school ISW Hoogeland is also within walking distance. The neighbourhood has a good range of shops and restaurants, all within a few minutes' walk. The municipality of the municipality of Westland is known for its greenhouse horticulture, but Naaldwijk centre feels like a proper small town.

Few problems here. Only parking on the street is difficult.
Auto-translated to English by AIFew problems here. Last armed robbery at the Chinese takeaway was about 10 years ago, I think. And the boss of the kebab shop on the corner of the street was arrested for drug trafficking, also years ago. They are doing a major renovation on a building two houses down from me. I'm curious what will go in there.

About Zuidbrug 34, Naaldwijk
The asking price of €325,000 is 43% below the average asking price in the neighbourhood (€574,750), but the apartment is also 59% smaller than the average home there (47 m² vs 114 m²). Given that it's a new-build with an A++ energy label, the price per square metre works out to about €6,915, which is above the neighbourhood average of €5,087 per m². So it's priced keenly overall, but the small size keeps the total low.
The apartment has an energy label A++, which is the highest possible rating. This means the home is extremely energy-efficient, with very low heating and electricity costs. Only 16% of homes for sale in the neighbourhood have label A or better, so this is a standout feature. You can expect minimal energy bills compared to older properties.
The nearest train station is 11 km away, so this is not a location for daily commuting by train. Most residents rely on cars or bicycles for longer journeys.
Naaldwijk Centrumgebied has a mix of households: about 25% are singles, 29% are couples without children, and 25% are families with children. There are several primary and secondary schools within walking distance, including Christelijke Basisschool de Ouverture (380 m) and ISW Hoogeland (381 m). However, the apartment itself is compact at 47 m², so it may suit a couple or single more than a family.
One resident notes that parking on the street is difficult. The listing does not mention a private parking spot or garage, so you would likely need to rely on street parking, which can be challenging in the centre. It's worth checking with the agent whether a permit is needed or if there are nearby parking facilities.
For daily groceries, Dirk is just 227 m away, Albert Heijn is 369 m, and Jumbo is 445 m, all within a five-minute walk. There are also restaurants, a library, and a GP practice within 0.5 km. The neighbourhood centre has a good range of amenities for everyday needs.
The apartment was built in 2023, so it's brand new. This means modern construction standards, good insulation, and the latest energy efficiency. The neighbourhood has a mix of older homes (26% pre-1945) and newer builds, so this property stands out as recent.
The neighbourhood recorded 356 total crimes in the latest data, which for a population of 4,880 works out to about 73 per 1,000 residents. Residents' reviews are mixed: one says "few problems here," while another mentions nuisance. Overall, it's a typical urban area with some issues but not considered high-crime.
