Lijnden Omgeving, Haarlemmermeer
This end-of-terrace house sits in the small, peaceful village of Lijnden, part of the Haarlemmermeer municipality. With just 200 residents, the neighbourhood feels intimate and calm, yet it's close to the bustle of Amsterdam. The asking price of €450,000 is on the high side compared to other end-of-terrace houses in Haarlemmermeer, especially given the living area.
Built in 2019, this two-storey home has four rooms, one bedroom, and one bathroom. The agent lists the living area as 104 m², while the BAG registration records 138 m². The plot is a generous 4250 m², which is unusual for an end-of-terrace house. The energy label is A, an efficient label, so expect relatively low energy costs.
Residents across the municipality of Haarlemmermeer give their living environment an average score of 7.68, based on 49 reviews. One resident says: "It's quite quiet and damp. It's also very cosy, children enjoy playing with each other." Another notes: "Fortunately, everything is reasonably close by, such as Haarlem, Hoofddorp." A third adds: "It's lovely living here, you know the neighbours, contact, and close to a small park, shops, and a retirement home. Pleasant, 10 minutes' walk to a recreational lake." The neighbourhood itself has a mix of ages, with many single-person households. The Lijnden Omgeving neighbourhood is not very urban, with a low address density.
Daily errands are manageable: the nearest supermarket, a Jumbo, is a ten-minute walk away, and there are several others within a couple of streets further. The G.Th. Rietveldschool is just around the corner, and other primary schools are within walking distance. A GP practice is a ten-minute walk, and a pharmacy is on your doorstep. For public transport, bus line 194 stops at Badhoevedorp, Oleanderlaan, just around the corner, and the nearest train station, Halfweg-Zwanenburg, is a bit further out. The municipality of Haarlemmermeer offers broader connections.

According to area-level risk data, the home has a low foundation risk indication, though the soil is clay, which is sensitive to settling. Noise from road, rail, and industry is below the norm, but aircraft noise is above the norm. Pluvial flooding risk is medium, while flood risk is low now and in 2050. Heat stress is low now but medium by 2050. These are area-level indications, not an inspection of this specific home.

How residents experience their municipality
It's quite quiet and damp. It's also very cosy, children enjoy playing with each other.
Auto-translated to English by AIFortunately, everything is reasonably close by, such as Haarlem, Hoofddorp.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's lovely living here, you know the neighbours, contact, and close to a small park, shops, and a retirement home. Pleasant, 10 minutes' walk to a recreational lake.
Auto-translated to English by AIWe have reasonable contact with each other, but if you don't have family in the neighbourhood, you could lie dead in your house for a month; it's still every man for himself. For hygiene, the streets are not cleaned, the street is uneven, you have to watch where you walk. For housing, more maintenance is needed; my house is damp, my kitchen lock is broken, the skylight hasn't been fixed properly, and I'm heating like crazy to keep warm, and it's only November.
Auto-translated to English by AIUnaffordable houses are being built, facilities lag behind. Refuse trucks are always on time but the bins and waste containers are not emptied often, resulting in mess on and along the roads and pavements. One road leading to Bloemenbuurt that is full of rubbish due to new construction and through traffic. Too many Moroccan people. Good schools though.
Auto-translated to English by AINice surroundings, quiet, convenient location relative to the A44 (though there are various road closures and diversions until 2030 due to bridge replacements). There are no shops, but a mobile shop comes three times a week for last-minute groceries, otherwise you drive to Sassenheim, Lisse or Nieuw-Vennep. Things are regularly organised in both De Buitenkaag and De Kaag, and thanks to that I've already met several villagers, which makes living here pleasant. A local newspaper appears a few times a year with all sorts of useful information and articles about the villages, residents and/or activities. Very handy!
Auto-translated to English by AII came to live at Oostmoor 22 when it was new. At first, very good contact with the fellow residents. Now partly - owner-occupied homes - the contact hasn't improved. Everyone lives in their own bubble, also caused by both partners working. People have no time for others. I myself make frequent use of the neighbourhood centre Linguenda, for a cup of coffee and a meal twice a month. Organised by volunteers. Even though the neighbourhood centre is centrally located in the area, it is still unknown to many. I also go to the meeting centre and C PUNT, to meet others and the belote club. For many elderly people, using a PC or laptop is somewhat complicated, and they therefore miss out on some information. I also use the supermarket for communication; you always run into someone you haven't seen in a while. Ludwig Fauser. optionally phone number 0640391865.
