Cattenbroek, Woerden
NeighbourhoodThis detached house on Cattenbroekerdijk 13 sits in the rural outskirts of Woerden, surrounded by green fields and a sense of space. With 729 m² of living space on a 1,635 m² plot, it is a substantial home with plenty of room for a large family. The year 1884 gives it character, though the E energy label means heating costs will be noticeable. At €1,450,000, the price is on the high side compared to other detached houses in Woerden, but the size and setting are exceptional.
The neighbourhood Cattenbroek is a tiny settlement with only 150 residents, mostly families and couples without children. Almost all homes are owner-occupied, and the area feels very safe with few reported incidents. It is a place where you know your neighbours and the biggest noise is the wind in the trees. There are no neighbourhood reviews available, but the figures paint a picture of a stable, close-knit community.
For your morning bread, Jumbo is just over a kilometre away, and Aldi is a bit further. The Margrietschool is a ten-minute walk, making the school run a pleasant stroll. The Andersenschool and KBS De Regenboog are also within easy reach. A park or public garden is a couple of streets away, and the municipality Woerden offers further amenities a short drive away.
At the time of writing the home is listed only via Gevaert Makelaars.

About Cattenbroekerdijk 13, Woerden
The price is on the high side compared to other detached homes in Woerden, but the living area of 729 m² and the large plot of 1,635 m² are exceptional. The E energy label and the 1884 construction year mean you will have higher energy costs and possibly maintenance needs. Whether it is fair depends on how much you value space and a rural setting.
The energy label is E, which is not very efficient. You can expect higher heating bills compared to a modern home. The house dates from 1884, so insulation and glazing may be original or upgraded only partially. It is worth checking the exact energy performance certificate for details.
The nearest train station is 3.7 km away. That is about a ten-minute drive or a longer cycle.
The closest primary school is Margrietschool at 744 m, a ten-minute walk. Andersenschool and KBS De Regenboog are also within walking distance. For secondary education, Minkema College has two locations within 1.2 to 1.4 km. All are within a comfortable distance for children to walk or cycle.
Cattenbroek is a small hamlet with only 150 residents, mostly families and couples. It is very quiet and safe, with low crime figures. Almost all homes are owner-occupied, so the community is stable. There are no shops or amenities in the hamlet itself, so you will need to go to Woerden for groceries and services.
The plot is 1,635 m², which is very large. The listing does not specify a garden, but with that much land, there is plenty of outdoor space.
