Roelofarendsveen, Kaag en Braassem
NeighbourhoodThis corner house on Rammenas in Roelofarendsveen is a modern home from 2019 with an A+++ energy label. With 184 m² of living space and a 302 m² plot, it offers plenty of room for a family. The asking price of €900,000 is on the high side compared to other end-of-terrace houses in Kaag en Braassem, but the size and energy efficiency set it apart.
Roelofarendsveen is a village with around 5,100 residents. The neighbourhood has a mix of families and older residents, and most homes are owner-occupied. One resident describes it as "Terrible", saying: "Most people end up here because they can't find housing in Leiden, Alphen and surrounding areas. But you wouldn't wish this on anyone, no facilities, childcare is full so children go to school in neighbouring municipalities because there is childcare there." This is based on a single review, so it's one perspective. The municipality Kaag en Braassem covers the wider area.
For daily shopping, Vomar is just around the corner and PLUS is a couple of streets away. There are two primary schools within walking distance: RKBS De Kiem (about a five-minute walk) and Rooms Katholiek Basisschool de Roelevaer (a ten-minute walk). A restaurant is on your doorstep, and a park or garden is a ten-minute walk away.
At the time of writing the home is listed via Oudshoorn makelaardij and also appears on Funda, so it's available through several channels.

Most people end up here because they can't find housing in Leiden, Alphen and surrounding areas. But you wouldn't wish this on anyone, no facilities, childcare is full so children go to school in neighbouring municipalities because there is childcare there. You can walk the dog on a strip of verge, nowhere a nice field to be seen let alone a place where they can burn off their energy. Young people have nothing so they regularly vandalise things, every weekend there are fireworks or other nuisance. People are mainly 'bothered' by each other but that's because they are deeply unhappy. The national parking standard is applied in the new housing estates so tough luck if you don't have a space and you'll quickly get a parking ticket. Tyres are slashed, cars scratched and a lot of nuisance from children/young people. Stay away if you can!
