Noordwijkerweg 17B
Dorp, Katwijk
NeighbourhoodA corner house with character
This corner house on Noordwijkerweg sits in the heart of Katwijk aan den Rijn, a village-like part of the coastal town. With 146 m² of living space and a 316 m² plot, it offers plenty of room for a family. The energy label A means low heating costs, and the 1972 build has been well maintained. At €850,000, the price is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average of €778,625, but the larger-than-average floor area and plot justify it. For context, end-of-terrace houses in Katwijk typically sell for around €6,161 per m².
Dorp: a mixed neighbourhood
The neighbourhood Dorp has 2,795 residents, with a mix of families and older households. Two residents describe it as "a mess" and "cosy and unpredictable", one mentions "unsafe, dogs barking all day", the other says "every few months something violent happens again. A lot of drugs are used in the neighbourhood, especially by young people." Based on these two reviews, the neighbourhood has a mixed reputation. CBS data shows 82% of homes are single-family, and 75% are owner-occupied, so it's a stable area with mostly families.
Daily life on the street
For groceries, Coop is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn is a couple of streets away. Lidl is a ten-minute walk. Schools are also close: Julianaschool Rijnsburg and PC Oranje Nassauschool are both about a ten-minute walk, while Teylingen College for secondary education is a couple of streets away. The municipality Katwijk has good local amenities, with a park and a restaurant both on your doorstep.

Frequently asked questions
About Noordwijkerweg 17B, Katwijk (Zh)
Is €850,000 a fair price for this house?
The asking price of €850,000 is above the neighbourhood average of €778,625 and the median of €700,000. However, this house has 146 m² of floor area and a 316 m² plot, which is larger than the average home in Dorp (127 m²). The price per m² works out to about €5,822, which is slightly below the neighbourhood average of €6,161 per m². So while the total price is high, you get more space for your money.

Auto-translated to English by AIGood, quiet, lots of green, supermarket nearby
Auto-translated to English by AIMy experience is that you speak to almost everyone in the neighbourhood and everyone is very friendly. Sometimes there are loitering youths but usually it's quiet. There is greenery but it could always be more! There are many terraced houses so there is plenty of space but also a number of large houses where actually many more houses could have been built. There are several schools to choose from so that's good!

Experiences from Katwijk
How residents experience their municipality
unsafe, dogs barking all day
Auto-translated to English by AIWesterhaghe is a charming and lively place with a rich history and a strong sense of community. Located in the municipality of Katwijk, close to the dunes and the coast, it combines the best of tranquillity and accessibility. The neighbourhood exudes a village atmosphere, where people know each other and life moves just a little slower. What makes my neighbourhood special is the mix of historic charm and modern amenities. The centre is cosy and compact, with local shops and pleasant eateries. The location is also ideal: cities like Leiden and The Hague are within easy reach, while at home you enjoy the peace and space of a smaller community. The Bollenstreek is just around the corner, making it extra special in spring with all those colourful fields in bloom. In short, it is a nice, safe and warm neighbourhood where tradition and progress go hand in hand.

Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood is very diverse, all kinds of people from all countries who were once brought together in Katwijk. It is number one, a very safe neighbourhood; I forgot to close my car window, it was open all night and really nothing happened. Whichever window I look out of, everywhere green, the diversity of birds is enormous. I look out over the Rhine, surrounded by greenery and especially on summer days lots of boats and picnic spots, some you have to make yourself but there are also plenty of benches. I always said I would never want to live here, my husband thought this spot was meant for us and within a month we had the certainty that we could live here. WONDERFUL,

Auto-translated to English by AIOur flat is nicely laid out, a safe feeling, beautiful view over the Rhine, people always cycling by, boats mooring and all kinds of cultures and people of all colours, young and old. Shops in the neighbourhood, chats with neighbours and also helpful to each other, very nice. Our house has a wide balcony that spans two rooms, so quite a lot of outdoor space. Sometimes the rubbish container is full and it does happen that a bag is left, but that probably happens everywhere. And because many boats moor and sail away again, there is often litter along the waterfront.
