Living in Hof van Delft: between city centre and green edges
Hof van Delft is a district best described as the western fringe of Delft's centre. You are within cycling distance of the city centre, but live in a slightly quieter area. On the district page of Hof van Delft, residents give the neighbourhood a 7.6 out of 10. Notably high scores are for safety (8.2), accessibility (8.2) and education (8.2). Resident Annemoon, who has lived there for twenty years, writes: "The neighbours are friendly and everything is within easy cycling distance." At the same time, not everyone is equally enthusiastic. Jacqueline notes that people tend to live alongside each other and that dog poo is a recurring problem. The playgrounds could also be better, according to her. That honesty is important if you want to buy a home here.
In terms of amenities, you are well catered for. Along the Hof van Delftlaan and the Westlandseweg you will find supermarkets such as Albert Heijn and Lidl. For primary education, there are, among others, the Westlandseschool and the Prinses Julianaschool. The Grotius College (secondary school) is nearby, and you notice that too: residents point out that schoolchildren sometimes cycle side by side on the cycle path. The Agnetapark, one of the most beautiful city parks in Delft, borders the district directly and is popular with runners and families. Sports club DSVP is nearby for football, and swimming pool Kerkpolder is a few minutes' cycle away.
Accessibility is a strong point. Delft Station is less than ten minutes away by bike and takes you to The Hague or Rotterdam in a quarter of an hour. Bus lines towards Westland and The Hague stop along the Westlandseweg. By car, you can quickly reach the A13 via the Kruithuisweg. Would you like to compare the atmosphere with other parts of Delft? Then also take a look at owner-occupied homes in the Binnenstad or the more spacious Voordijkshoorn. Within Hof van Delft itself, the character varies per neighbourhood: the Olofsbuurt feels more urban, while the Krakeelpolder offers a bit more space. On the website of the municipality of Delft you will find information about ongoing district projects and zoning plans.
Does Hof van Delft suit you as a buyer?
With an average income of €36,000 in the district and purchase prices that vary widely, Hof van Delft attracts different target groups.

Movers-up and dual-income couples will find family homes with more space here, although you should factor in additional costs such as transfer tax (2%) and notary fees. Families appreciate the schools and green spaces, seniors the amenities within walking distance. To be honest, the supply is limited, as resident Annemoon also indicates: "You don't just get a home here."

Auto-translated to English by AII've lived here for 20 years and have always enjoyed it. The neighbours are friendly and everything is within easy cycling distance. Unfortunately, there is little housing available here; I want to move out with my boyfriend (we live with my parents) but you can't get a house here, unfortunately.
Auto-translated to English by AIPeople live past each other. Shit everywhere, owners don't clean up anything. Playgrounds nothing. Cyclists ride very fast, young people from the higher school ride three or four abreast, cheeky. More playgrounds for kids, more green in the neighbourhood, and that dog owners clean up their dog's shit‼️ And a smile costs nothing
