Living in Koningsveldbuurt, Delft

Koningsveldbuurt is located in the southwest of Delft, wedged between the Rotterdamseweg and the railway line, and has a distinctly quiet, almost village-like character that few outsiders expect. The streets are wide, the gardens are large, and car traffic is limited. It is a neighbourhood where people stay for a long time: the largest age groups are 45-65 and 65-plus, each accounting for 215 residents out of a total of 635. That tells you something about the atmosphere: established, stable, little student noise.

The homes mostly date from the 1950s and 1960s, with a mix of semi-detached and detached houses on spacious plots. This also explains the high WOZ values: they are not terraced houses but homes with character and outdoor space. Compared to the neighbouring Zeeheldenbuurt, which is more compact and urban, Koningsveldbuurt feels considerably greener and airier.

In terms of amenities, the location is practical. Supermarkets such as Albert Heijn and Jumbo are within cycling distance via the Rotterdamseweg. For daily shopping, you hardly need to leave the neighbourhood. Primary schools in the immediate vicinity serve the younger residents, although with 70 children aged 0-15, they are clearly in the minority. The Reinier de Graaf Hospital is a few minutes' drive away, which may be a deliberate consideration for the older resident group.

Delft Station is about ten minutes away by bike, providing direct connections to The Hague (approximately 12 minutes) and Rotterdam (approximately 15 minutes). For those travelling by car: the A13 is quickly accessible via the Rotterdamseweg, towards both The Hague and Rotterdam. Bus services run along the Rotterdamseweg, but most residents cycle or drive.

Residents most appreciate the peace and space. One resident writes: "You notice that everyone here has lived here for years. The neighbours know each other, the street is clean, and you hear nothing in the evening." Criticism sometimes focuses on the limited shopping facilities directly in the neighbourhood itself and the distance to the bustling centre of Delft, which is about three kilometres away.

Those who also want to explore other neighbourhoods in the district can look at Wippolder-Noord or TU-Noord, which have a different character but are located in the same municipality. More background on the district can be found on the page about owner-occupied homes in Wippolder. The municipality of Delft also provides information about permits and zoning plans via delft.nl, handy if you have renovation plans.

Who is a home for sale in Koningsveldbuurt interesting for?

Koningsveldbuurt best suits movers and seniors seeking space, peace, and stability. The combination of large homes, high prices, and an established neighbourhood community makes it less accessible for first-time buyers: with an average purchase price of €758,167 and a lower limit of €650,000, buying an apartment in Koningsveldbuurt is financially out of reach for most starters. Those who still want to live in the neighbourhood but have a lower budget could consider looking at rental homes in Koningsveldbuurt, although the rental share is minimal at 5%. Be prepared for a market with little supply and quick decisions: six transactions in a year means that something is rarely for sale.

What residents say about Koningsveldbuurt

Lower scores sometimes go to the level of amenities directly in the neighbourhood and accessibility by public transport. All ratings and sub-scores can be found on the page of the Koningsveldbuurt.
