Buying a house in Leidschendam-Voorburg: the housing market in 2026
Leidschendam-Voorburg is wedged between The Hague and Zoetermeer, and that is precisely what makes the municipality so attractive. You live a stone's throw from the Binnenhof and the ministries, but in an environment that is noticeably quieter and greener than the big city. The municipality has over 78,000 residents and consists of two centres with their own character: historic Voorburg, one of the oldest places in the Netherlands, and the more modern Leidschendam with its locks and shopping centres. With 57% owner-occupied homes, the municipality is firmly focused on home ownership. The average WOZ value is €380,000, but actual selling prices are higher: in the past year, the average purchase price was €521,240, with a range from €210,000 for a starter apartment to €3,500,000 for the most expensive detached homes. 570 homes were sold, indicating an active but tight market. At the top of this page you will find the current supply and the most recent selling times. Buurtje.nl combines housing supply from more than 1,500 sources with neighbourhood scores and resident reviews, so you not only find a home but also the right neighbourhood.

Leidschendam-Zuid and surroundings: affordable and practical
Leidschendam-Zuid scores a 7.7 with residents and is one of the more affordable options in the municipality. The neighbourhood has a practical slant: shopping centre Leidsenhage (now Westfield Mall of the Netherlands) is nearby, as are the A4 and the Randstadrail. The housing supply consists mainly of terraced houses and apartments from the 1970s and 1980s. For starters and young families looking for a home below the municipal average, this is a logical choice. View homes in Leidschendam-Zuid.
Stompwijk: rural living on the edge of the Randstad
Stompwijk is the odd one out in the municipality: a real village with meadows, farms and a close-knit community. Residents rate it a 7.8 and particularly mention the green character and tranquillity. Here you won't buy an apartment but rather a detached home or a renovated farmhouse. Prices per home are often higher, but you get a lot of space in return. The downside: amenities are limited and you are dependent on the car. View the supply in Stompwijk.
In addition to these neighbourhoods, there are more options. De Heuvel and Amstelwijk (neighbourhood score 7.9) offer a quiet living environment with lots of greenery. Prinsenhof (7.4) is a compact neighbourhood with affordable apartments. And those looking for a historic atmosphere can look at Voorburg Oud, although that neighbourhood scores lower with a 6.4 due to, among other things, parking pressure and limited renewal.

What to look out for when buying a home in Leidschendam-Voorburg?
Firstly: the price differences between neighbourhoods are large. Buying an apartment in Leidschendam-Zuid or Bovenveen is a very different story from a family home in Voorburg West. Look carefully at what you are looking for and which price segment fits that. Secondly: the market in Leidschendam-Voorburg is tight. With 570 homes sold in a year and a municipality of almost 38,000 homes, relatively little comes on the market. Overbidding is more the rule than the exception, especially for well-maintained family homes. Keep that in mind in your financing. Thirdly: accessibility varies greatly per neighbourhood. Voorburg has two train stations and a Randstadrail stop, while in Stompwijk or De Heuvel you are really dependent on the car. Check this before you lose your heart to a home. Finally: use neighbourhood data to support your choice. On Buurtje.nl you can see per neighbourhood how residents score on safety, greenery, amenities and more, so you know what to expect.

You can never walk through the park normally without being spoken to or almost being hit by a fatbike on the pavement. A group is taking over the park and apparently no one can do anything about it. Not a safe neighbourhood for my children
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a very soothing neighbourhood with friendly people. It's certainly not easy to reach and many people don't know it, but it's a cosy neighbourhood. The view is beautiful, almost nothing ever happens here, it's close to the countryside and you have many farmers (so always nice fresh products) all in all it's a cosy top neighbourhood.

Auto-translated to English by AII was born here, the neighbourhood has changed a lot in the past 34 years. In the past, people helped each other, now many divorced people. Greetings are no longer possible, and the biggest problem is the parking issues! And always noise from school, renovations, barking dogs, crying children.
