Living in Havenbuurt, Lansingerland
Havenbuurt has something you rarely find in new-build neighbourhoods: its own recognisable rhythm. It is a quiet, green neighbourhood that directly borders the water and the polder strips that typify Lansingerland. The name is no coincidence: the neighbourhood has a clear relationship with the surrounding water-rich landscape, which is reflected in the layout of streets and the presence of greenery and open space right around the corner.
The homes largely date from the 1980s and 1990s, with a mix of semi-detached houses, detached homes and terraced houses. The streetscape is calm and well-maintained, with ample parking space and a scale that does not overwhelm.

That is precisely what sets Havenbuurt apart: the combination of tranquillity and accessibility is well-balanced here.
