Westerwatering Noord, Zaanstad
NeighbourhoodThis end-of-terrace house on Aagje Dekenstraat sits in a remarkably green and peaceful part of Zaandam. With 110 m² of living space and a 126 m² plot, it offers a comfortable family home. The energy label B means it's reasonably efficient. At €435,000, the price is in line with the market for end-of-terrace houses in Zaanstad.
The neighbourhood is described as enchantingly quiet, but sometimes too deserted. One resident says: "It's a beautiful and green neighbourhood, with nature that truly enchants you. Yet sometimes it can feel too quiet and isolated." The area is connected to the rest of the city by only two roads, which can lead to traffic jams when the bridge is closed. There's a lack of amenities like cafés or ice cream parlours. The neighbourhood Westerwatering Noord is home to mostly families and couples, with a high proportion of owner-occupied homes.
For your groceries, Vomar and Dekamarkt are just around the corner, and Albert Heijn is a five-minute walk away. Primary schools are also close by: Christelijke Basisschool Het Baken and Openbare basisschool Het Eiland are both a couple of streets away. The municipality Zaanstad offers further amenities within easy reach.
At the time of writing the home is listed only via Prismaat Makelaars Zaanstad.

It's a beautiful and green neighbourhood, with nature that truly enchants you. Yet sometimes it can feel too quiet and isolated. The neighbourhood is connected to the rest of the city by only two roads. When the bridge 'De Binding' is closed, only one route remains to civilisation — which regularly leads to traffic jams. Additionally, there is unfortunately a lack of good amenities. There isn't a single café or ice cream parlour in the area; for a simple cup of coffee or a treat, you have to travel miles. The infrastructure could certainly be improved to make life here more pleasant and better connected.
