Burgemeestersbuurt, Zaanstad
NeighbourhoodThis 1901 corner house on Hanenpad has a surprising amount of space: 115 m² of living area on a 147 m² plot. The energy label A is a real bonus for a home of this age, efficient and warm. With a price of €525,000, it sits 24% above the average asking price in the Burgemeestersbuurt, but you get a home that's 25% larger than the neighbourhood norm. For context, end-of-terrace houses in Zaanstad vary widely, so this one stands out.
The Burgemeestersbuurt is a calm, leafy neighbourhood with beautiful houses and a strong sense of community. One resident says: "It is a quiet neighbourhood with beautiful houses. There are plenty of primary and secondary schools in the area." Another adds: "generally I don't experience any nuisance and children can go to the playground to make friends, lots of nice people." The area scores a 7.15 out of 10 from six reviews. Most homes are pre-war (100%), and two-thirds are single-family houses. The neighbourhood Burgemeestersbuurt is popular with families and couples.
For your morning bread, Dekamarkt is just around the corner, and Vomar and AH XL are a ten-minute walk away. Two primary schools, obs De Gouw and OBS Herman Gorter, are within a couple of streets away, making the school run a doddle. Secondary schools are a bit further, but still walkable. The municipality Zaanstad has plenty of parks and playgrounds, and the train station is a ten-minute walk, so Amsterdam is quick to reach.
At the time of writing the home is listed only via Makelaarsland.

Reasonable, but compared to 20 years ago. Too busy with traffic.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt is a quiet neighbourhood with beautiful houses. There are plenty of primary and secondary schools in the area, but unfortunately no universities or colleges. It is very close to Amsterdam (10 minutes by car), which is always nice. The infrastructure is very good and there are more and more improvements. It is a shame that there is not a larger centre, because at the moment there are only clothing stores, terraces and restaurants. House prices are also getting more expensive, and are starting to look more and more like those in Amsterdam. There are also plenty of sports clubs. The only problem is the Poelenburg district, where there are sometimes issues. I hope that more attention will be paid to that.

About Hanenpad 34, Zaandam
The asking price is 24% above the neighbourhood average of €424,750, but this home is also 25% larger than the typical 92 m² in the Burgemeestersbuurt. Recent sales in the area averaged €376,886, though those were smaller homes. Given the size, energy label A, and corner-house layout, the price is on the high side but reflects the extra space and efficiency.
Residents describe it as quiet and family-friendly, with plenty of primary schools within walking distance and playgrounds where children can make friends. The neighbourhood has a mix of families and couples, and most homes are single-family houses. One resident notes that the Poelenburg district nearby can have issues, but the Burgemeestersbuurt itself is calm.
This home has energy label A, which is very efficient, especially for a house built in 1901. You can expect low heating costs and a comfortable indoor climate. In the neighbourhood, only 25% of homes have label A, so this is a standout feature.
The nearest train station is 1.9 km away, about a ten-minute walk or a short cycle. From there, Amsterdam is about 10 minutes by train, as residents mention.
Dekamarkt is just 629 m away, so daily groceries are on your doorstep. Vomar and AH XL are about a kilometre away, and there are plenty of other supermarkets within a short distance. The neighbourhood has clothing stores, terraces and restaurants, though residents note the centre could be larger.
Built in 1901, this corner house has been well maintained, the energy label A suggests modern insulation and efficient systems. The 115 m² living area and 147 m² plot offer generous space, and the layout is typical of a pre-war corner home.
