About Valkenburgseweg 10, Katwijk
The price is above the neighbourhood average of €495,000 for sold homes, but those were different property types. Detached houses are rare in Molenwijk, so there are few direct comparisons. The large plot and living space justify a premium, but it is on the high side relative to the local market.
The energy label is E, which means the home is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a modern home. The house was built in 1960, so improvements like better insulation or a new heating system could be worth considering.
The nearest train station is 5.9 km away, so it is not within walking distance. You would need a car or bus to reach it. The area is more car-dependent for longer journeys.
There are several primary schools within walking distance: Julianaschool Rijnsburg (about 600 m) and PC Oranje Nassauschool (about 1 km). For secondary education, Teylingen College is about 670 m away. All are easily reachable on foot or by bike.
Residents consistently rate the neighbourhood as safe. One review says "safe neighbourhood, quiet neighbourhood" and another mentions "no trouble with thieves." The total number of crimes in the area is 99, which is low for a neighbourhood of this size.
The plot is 270 m², which includes the garden. The exact size and layout of the garden are not specified, but it is a good-sized outdoor space for a detached home in this area.
