Appartement in Welgelegen, Leeuwarden

That made it a notably keen price for a 61 m² apartment. For context, apartments in Leeuwarden typically sell for around €2,902 per m². This home has not been online since 13 August 2026.
Welgelegen
Welgelegen is a densely built urban neighbourhood with over 3,900 addresses per km². One resident describes it as a "cosy neighbourhood" with an "atmospheric" feel and nice neighbours, where you can walk straight into the city centre. Another review, however, notes drug problems and speeding cars, so it's a mixed picture. The area has a young population, many 25-45 year olds, and a high proportion of single-person households. Most homes are pre-war, and only a quarter are owner-occupied. This is the neighbourhood Welgelegen in a nutshell.
Life on the street
For daily shopping, Jumbo and Lidl are both just around the corner, and Aldi and Albert Heijn are a five-minute walk away. Primary school IKC de Kinderkoepel is a couple of streets away, and secondary schools like CSG Comenius are within a ten-minute walk. The train station is a 1.9 km walk, and the city centre is easily reachable on foot. The municipality Leeuwarden offers a compact urban lifestyle.

Frequently asked questions
About Zuidvliet 530, Leeuwarden
Was €159,000 a fair price for this apartment?
At €159,000, this was the cheapest home for sale in Welgelegen and 41% below the average asking price of €271,750 in the neighbourhood. The floor area of 61 m² was smaller than the neighbourhood average of 102 m², which partly explained the lower price. Given the energy label C and the 1984 build, the price was keen compared to other listings in the area.
What is the neighbourhood like to live in?
Welgelegen is a very urban area with a mix of historic and modern housing. One resident calls it a 'cosy neighbourhood' with a historic feel and easy access to the centre. Another mentions drug problems and speeding cars. The population is young, with many singles and few families. It's a lively, dense area with both charm and challenges.
How far is the city centre?
The city centre of Leeuwarden is within walking distance, residents say you can walk straight into the centre. The exact distance is not stated, but the neighbourhood is adjacent to the historic core. The train station is 1.9 km away, about a 20-minute walk.
What are the nearby shops and schools?
Jumbo and Lidl are within 300 metres, and Aldi and Albert Heijn are within 500 metres. Primary schools IKC de Kinderkoepel and IKC Aventurijn are within walking distance, and several secondary schools like CSG Comenius are about 700-800 metres away. All daily amenities are close by.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is C, which is average for a home of this age (1984). It means the home is reasonably efficient but not top-tier. In Welgelegen, 36.4% of homes have label C, and 40.9% have D or lower, so this is in the middle range.
How many rooms does this apartment have?
The floor area was 61 m², which typically accommodates a one- or two-bedroom layout, but the exact room count was not provided by the agent.
Is there a garden or outdoor space?
The listing did not mention a garden, balcony, or terrace. The plot size is not given, so it's unclear if there is any private outdoor space.
