Buitenhuizerweg 2-159
Zuid-Spaarndammerpolder, Velsen
NeighbourhoodA spacious detached home on a remarkable plot
This detached house on Buitenhuizerweg in Velsen-Zuid sits on a plot of 6,910 m², a rare find. The listing does not state an energy label. As a result, the rest of this page is mainly about the street and the neighbourhood, not the home itself. With a floor area of 443 m² and a price of €179,000, the price per square metre is well below the average for detached houses in Velsen, making it keenly priced for the space on offer.
The Zuid-Spaarndammerpolder neighbourhood
Zuid-Spaarndammerpolder is a quiet, rural area with only 320 residents. Most homes are owner-occupied (80%) and nearly all are single-family houses (94%). The population is older, with the largest group aged 45 to 65. There are no resident reviews available for this neighbourhood, so the picture comes from official statistics. It is a very low-density area (urbanity level 5), so peace and space are guaranteed. For more context, see the Zuid-Spaarndammerpolder neighbourhood.
Life on the street
Daily errands require a car: the nearest supermarket, Albert Heijn, is about a ten-minute walk away, and primary schools like Openbare Basisschool De Spaarneschool are a similar distance. For a wider choice, there are several other supermarkets and schools within a few kilometres. The area is rural, so you will rely on driving for most amenities. The municipality of Velsen covers both this green fringe and the more urban centres; find out more about the municipality of Velsen.

Frequently asked questions
About Buitenhuizerweg 2-159, Velsen-Zuid
Is €179,000 a fair price for this property?
With 443 m² of floor space on a 6,910 m² plot, the price per square metre is very low compared to other detached houses in Velsen. The asking price is keen, especially given the generous plot. However, the energy label is not stated, so future heating costs are unknown, that is something to factor in.
Why is there no energy label in this listing?
The agent has not provided an energy label for this home. You would need to request this information from the seller or agent if it is important to you.

Zuid-Spaarndammerpolder is a very quiet, rural neighbourhood with only 320 residents. Most homes are owner-occupied and nearly all are single-family houses. The population is older, with many residents aged 45 to 65. It is a low-density area, so you can expect plenty of peace and privacy.
How far are the nearest shops and schools?

Experiences from Velsen
How residents experience their municipality
Good experience. I have never felt unsafe in my neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AIMany houses in the Rivierenbuurt are old and poorly insulated. This causes drafts, dampness and high energy costs. Also, the maintenance of some homes is insufficient, which detracts from the appearance of the neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AIWijkerstraatweg is a street with houses from the early 1900s. Character and luxurious appearance. In addition, Wijkeroogpark is right on your doorstep.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's sometimes busy but also quiet. If you don't know people, you have nothing to do. If you want to get to know people, there are nice community centres or for 50+ Sluis 51. So you can do fun things but you have to take the initiative yourself, otherwise it's very boring. I myself am 19 and am quite satisfied with this neighbourhood. The hygiene is not good, it's often dirty on the street, dog poo is not cleaned up, and Tata Steel emissions don't smell too fresh either. Getting a house is actually impossible because it's full here. My wifi works fine here.
Auto-translated to English by AINice quiet neighbourhood with almost exclusively local traffic. Unfortunately, few to no amenities really nearby. Would have liked a shop closer by.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a quiet neighbourhood, little nuisance, but very cosy, there are many shops within walking distance so fine
Auto-translated to English by AIHonestly a nice neighbourhood with many places where children can play and where only sweet, decent people live
Auto-translated to English by AIPeople themselves are not social compared to when I came to live here. I live in a risk area. You walk out of the street and you can walk in the woods. But you don't do that alone. My house is okay, it just should have been in a different location.
