Laageinde, Waalwijk
NeighbourhoodThis is a rare find: a spacious detached house in the heart of Waalwijk, with a generous 330 m² of living space and a large plot. Built in 1910, it has character and presence. The asking price of €987,000 is on the high side compared to other homes in the neighbourhood, but it's also the largest and most expensive property currently for sale in Laageinde.

Waalwijk is very quiet, sometimes too quiet. Although you often have burglaries or sometimes a robbery, not much happens to the ordinary citizen and it is certainly not unsafe to go out with your family even in the evening. One thing that needs to change is that it is too quiet. There are no parties for young people anywhere in Waalwijk, while you certainly long for that during your teenage years.

About Grotestraat 395, Waalwijk
The asking price is 64% above the average asking price in Laageinde (€600,714) and it's the most expensive of the 7 homes currently for sale in the neighbourhood. However, this home is also much larger than average (330 m² vs 182 m²) and is a detached house, which is a rare type in this area. So the premium reflects its size and uniqueness.
The home has energy label E. In the neighbourhood, most homes for sale have better labels (about 57% have A or A+). Label E means the home is not very energy-efficient, so you can expect higher energy costs. It may be worth considering improvements, but the listing does not provide details on insulation or heating.
Laageinde is a quiet, residential neighbourhood with a strong sense of community. Residents appreciate the peace and the fact that people know each other, often gathering outside in summer. However, some feel it's too quiet for young people, with few activities available. Crime is low, and it's safe to walk around even in the evening.
There are several primary and secondary schools within walking distance. RK Basisschool Teresia is about 500 metres away, and Dr. Mollercollege and Walewyc-mavo are around 600-700 metres. In total, there are 24 schools within 5 km, so plenty of choice.
The nearest train station is 16.4 km away, so this home is not ideal for daily commuting by train. You would likely need a car or bus for longer journeys.
Jumbo is just 78 metres away, making it very convenient for daily groceries. Albert Heijn is about 865 metres, a ten-minute walk. There are also other supermarkets within a few kilometres.
With 330 m² of living space and a large plot of 713 m², there is plenty of room for a family. The neighbourhood has many families and children, and schools are nearby. However, the home itself has energy label E, which may mean higher running costs.
