Voorhout buitengebied, Teylingen
NeighbourhoodThis corner house on Torenlaan sits in the rural outskirts of Voorhout, where the pace of life is noticeably slower. With 110 m² of living space and a 123 m² plot, it's a compact but complete home, built in 2003 and carrying an energy label B. The asking price of €500,000 is remarkably keen, 70% below the neighbourhood average of €1,663,333, and it's the cheapest of the three homes currently for sale in this area. For context, end-of-terrace houses in Teylingen tend to command higher prices, so this one stands out.
The neighbourhood Voorhout buitengebied is a sparsely populated area with 930 residents and a low address density of 515 per km², a 4 on the urbanity scale, meaning it's clearly rural. Most homes are owner-occupied (84%) and nearly all are single-family houses (90%). The population is mixed: a fair share of families with children (140 households) and older residents (170 aged 65+), but also many in the 45-65 bracket (310). There are no resident reviews available for this neighbourhood, so the picture comes purely from the figures.
For daily errands, the nearest supermarket is Albert Heijn, about a ten-minute walk away, with Vomar and Hoogvliet also within reach. Schools are close by: primary school R.K.B.S De Overplaats is a couple of streets away, and ISK Duin- en Bollenstreek for secondary education is about 1.3 km. A restaurant is just around the corner, and the municipality Teylingen offers further amenities in the wider area. The train station is 2.8 km away, a short drive or cycle.
At the time of writing, the home is listed via Piet Warmerdam Makelaardij and also appears on Vastgoed Nederland, so it's available through two channels.
