Bloemendaalseweg 48

A grand detached home on a leafy lane

This is a proper family house, set back from the road on a generous plot. Built in 1880, it has the character you'd expect from a period property, high ceilings, large rooms and plenty of original features. The 230 m² floor area gives you space to spread out, and the 595 m² garden is a real bonus in a town like Gouda. At €975,000, the price is on the high side compared to other detached houses in Gouda, but the size and location justify it.

The Bloemendaalseweg neighbourhood

The neighbourhood Bloemendaalseweg is a quiet, leafy pocket of Gouda with just 85 residents. It's a mix of families and older couples, most homes are owner-occupied and nearly all are detached houses. The streets are calm, and the park is just a couple of streets away. There are no resident reviews available for this neighbourhood, so the picture comes from the data: it's a small, well-to-do enclave with a village feel.

Life on the street

For daily shopping, you have a Jumbo just around the corner, a Lidl a five-minute walk away, and an Albert Heijn a couple of streets further. There are several schools within walking distance: a primary school (Protestants Christelijke Basisschool Livingstone) is a five-minute walk, and a secondary school (De Startbaan praktijkcollege) is just a couple of streets away. The municipality Gouda has all the amenities you'd expect from a historic city, but here you're in a green, residential part of town.
