Our neighbourhood is incredibly cosy, in almost every street lives a familiar/nice person and there are always people you can have a chat with. There is hardly any theft and nothing serious happens. The nature is very nice, there is a small park and a beach so you can fully enjoy the neighbourhood. Hygiene is also very good, hardly any litter is found and if litter is found it is usually cleaned up immediately. Education is good, 2 primary schools in the village and several secondary schools within 10 km, but unfortunately no college/university. The only downside is the number of amenities. In summer you can enjoy the beach or the water, or play football in the park, but in winter there is basically nothing. You can play football and play on the school playgrounds and the ice rink, but that's about it. There are also playgrounds scattered around the neighbourhood, but they are not super special.

About Johannes Kolfstraat 6, Westmaas
The price is on the high side for a detached home in Hoeksche Waard, but the 260 m² floor area, 815 m² plot, and A++ energy label from 2016 are exceptional. Comparable homes in the area are typically smaller or older, so the premium reflects the modern build and efficiency.
The home has an A++ energy label, which is the highest rating. This means very low energy costs for heating and electricity, as the home is well-insulated and likely equipped with sustainable systems like a heat pump or solar panels.
The nearest train station is 12.4 km away, so this home is best suited for those who rely on a car or bicycle for longer journeys. The village itself is quiet and car-oriented.
