About Cantineweg 21, Katwijk
The asking price is €1,695,000. This is significantly higher than the average asking price in the Zanderij neighbourhood, which is €543,000. The price per square metre, based on the BAG living area of 261 m², comes to €6,494. The neighbourhood average price per square metre is €5,121, so this home is priced well above the local norm.
According to the BAG registration, the living area is 261 m² and the plot size is 1,200 m². The agent does not provide a separate living area figure, so the BAG figures are the only ones available. This makes the home considerably larger than the neighbourhood average living area of 109 m².
The energy label is A, which is an efficient label. This means the home is likely to have relatively low energy costs compared to less efficient labels. The home was built in 1950, but the label reflects the current energy performance, not the construction year. No further details on insulation or heating installations are provided in the listing.
The WOZ value is the municipal valuation used for taxes, and it is not always included in property listings. Without this figure, it is not possible to compare the asking price with the official valuation. The WOZ value is determined by the municipality and can be found in public records.
According to public risk data, the road traffic noise at this address is 63 dB Lden, which is above the Dutch noise norm. Aircraft noise is 44 dB Lden, which is below the norm. These are area-level indications based on data from Atlas Leefomgeving, and they do not represent a measurement inside the home itself.
The foundation risk indication is low. This is based on the soil type, which is sand, and the fact that the home was built before 1970. This is an area-level indication, not an inspection of the specific foundation of this home. It suggests that foundation issues are less likely in this area, but it is not a guarantee.
The pluvial flooding risk (from heavy rain) is elevated, meaning there is a higher chance of water nuisance during intense rainfall. The flood risk from rivers or the sea is low for both the current situation and for 2050.

How residents experience their neighbourhood
My 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!

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 AIWe have a lot of greenery, a good supermarket, safe neighbourhood, quiet neighbourhood, more shops in the area such as in Valkenburg and Rijnsburg.
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.
