Living in Oud-Delfgauw, Pijnacker-Nootdorp

Oud-Delfgauw is the historic heart of the Delfgauw district: a compact, green neighbourhood with a village character that you won't find in the surrounding new-build areas. Where neighbourhoods like Emerald Noord and Emerald Centrum largely consist of new-build homes from the 2000s and 2010s, Oud-Delfgauw has a more mixed streetscape. You'll find older detached homes, semi-detached homes and terraced houses from various periods, interspersed with some green and open space that you encounter less often in the rest of the municipality. The neighbourhood feels quiet, but is not a remote enclave.

The location is practical. Via the N470 and the connection to the A13, you can quickly reach Delft or The Hague. By bike, Delft Noord railway station can be reached in a quarter of an hour, and bus connections via the surrounding roads link Oud-Delfgauw with Pijnacker and Nootdorp. For daily shopping, residents rely on facilities in the adjacent districts, such as the shops towards Pijnacker-centrum or the supermarkets in the new-build parts of Delfgauw. Oud-Delfgauw itself has no shopping street, but that is part of the neighbourhood's character.

In terms of population composition, the neighbourhood is notably diverse in age. The largest group is 45 to 65 years old (585 residents), but young people aged 15 to 25 are also well represented (355 people), as are families with children. Single-person households are the most common household type (350 units), which aligns with the relatively high proportion of smaller homes. Forty percent of households are married. The average income in Oud-Delfgauw (€38,600) is clearly below the municipal average of €44,200, making the neighbourhood also financially more accessible than large parts of Pijnacker-Nootdorp.

Residents appreciate the peace and green surroundings. On the neighbourhood homepage of Oud-Delfgauw, you can find resident reviews with scores per category. One resident writes: "It's quiet living here, you can tell it's an old village. No hustle and bustle, but everything within reach if you have a car." Criticism sometimes focuses on the limited range of facilities directly in the neighbourhood and the dependence on a car for shopping. For a complete picture of what residents think, including scores for liveability, green space and accessibility, you can consult all reviews on the neighbourhood page.

Is a home to buy in Oud-Delfgauw right for you as a buyer?

Oud-Delfgauw mainly attracts movers and families who consciously choose a quieter environment with more space, without the new-build estate feel of the Emerald neighbourhoods or Zuidpolder Delfgauw. The wide price range (€295,000 to €980,000) means that first-time buyers also have a chance, although supply is limited: only 17 homes were sold in a year. That means you need to act quickly when something becomes available. Be prepared for overbidding on sought-after properties. Seniors who want to live quietly with their own garden will also find suitable options here. Those who want more choice or more flexibility can also look at rental homes in Oud-Delfgauw as an interim solution. For a broader supply in the region, a comparison with homes for sale in Delfgauw or other districts in the municipality is worthwhile.
