Oud-IJmuiden, Velsen
NeighbourhoodThis is a rare find: a spacious detached house in IJmuiden, with a floor area that dwarfs most homes in the neighbourhood. At €1,295,000, it's the priciest of the 15 homes currently for sale in Oud-IJmuiden, and 89% above the average asking price of €683,467, so it's on the high side, but then you're getting something exceptional. For context, detached houses in Velsen are a niche market, and this one stands out.
Oud-IJmuiden is a mixed neighbourhood with around 2,870 residents. One resident describes it as a 'Beautiful new neighbourhood' but notes: 'The new houses are beautiful, unfortunately there is little greenery and no shops. Different kinds of people live here.' That's based on a single review, so take it as one perspective. The area has a mix of ages, with many 25-45 year olds, and a fair share of over-65s. It's fairly urban, with an address density of 1,995 per km². For more on the area, see the neighbourhood Oud-IJmuiden.
For daily shopping, Vomar is just around the corner, and Dekamarkt is a couple of streets away. There are two primary schools within walking distance: De Klipper and Het Kompas. A restaurant is on your doorstep, and a park or garden is a five-minute walk away. The municipality Velsen offers a mix of coastal and urban living, though the train station is 5.3 km away.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including G&O Makelaars, Funda and Pararius.
