House prices and market figures for Pijnacker Noord, Pijnacker-Nootdorp
Of the more than 1,900 homes in Pijnacker Noord, 55% are owner-occupied and 45% are rental properties. This makes it a mixed neighbourhood, with social housing accounting for a significant share: 38% of the total stock. The average WOZ value is €342,000, which is clearly lower than the district average for Pijnacker (€467,000) and the municipal average for Pijnacker-Nootdorp (€482,000). This difference is striking and is partly due to the housing mix: relatively many social rental homes and more modest owner-occupied homes pull the average down.
On the owner-occupied market, prices are much higher than the WOZ value suggests. In the past twelve months, 25 homes were sold with an average purchase price of €499,020. The range ran from €395,000 to €625,000, with an average living area of 112 m². This works out to a price of approximately €4,455 per m². The housing stock largely consists of terraced houses and semi-detached houses from the 1970s and 1980s. Apartments are also available, but form a smaller part of the supply. See the current overview at the top of this page for the most recent asking prices and selling times.
Living in Pijnacker Noord, Pijnacker-Nootdorp
Pijnacker Noord is a quiet, well-organised residential neighbourhood on the north side of the village of Pijnacker. Its character is typically post-war: wide streets, spacious gardens, plenty of greenery between the homes, and a pace that is much slower than in the newer neighbourhoods further on. The neighbourhood mainly consists of terraced houses and semi-detached houses from the 1970s and 1980s, interspersed with some porch flats and senior housing. This also explains the age structure: the largest group of residents is 65-plus, followed by 45-65-year-olds. Families with young children are certainly present, but Pijnacker Noord is not a typical family neighbourhood like, for example, Keijzershof Erven or Ackerswoude.
In terms of amenities, the neighbourhood is reasonably self-sufficient. There are primary schools within walking distance, and for daily groceries you can go to the supermarkets in the centre of Pijnacker, a short bike ride away. Sports clubs, a library and medical facilities are available in or directly around the neighbourhood. The centre of Pijnacker itself offers more shops, hospitality and public services; the neighbourhood Pijnacker-Centrum/Dorp borders directly on it.
Accessibility scores well with residents. By car, you can quickly reach Delft, The Hague or Rotterdam via the N470. The RandstadRail stop Pijnacker-Zuid is a bike ride away and takes you to The Hague Central or Zoetermeer in about twenty minutes. Within the neighbourhood itself, public transport is more limited. One resident writes: "Good neighbourhood, almost never any problems, well accessible, only a bus from the centre through the rest of Pijnacker Noord would be nice." That is a point that comes up more often: those without a bike or car notice that bus connections within the neighbourhood are scarce.
Safety is a strong point. Residents give it an 8.0, and the atmosphere is quiet and friendly. Another resident describes the neighbourhood as: "Friendly people. No nuisance. Many amenities and good accessibility with public transport and car." However, the roundabouts in the neighbourhood are mentioned as a point of attention for cyclists, and during heavy rainfall, the groundwater can be noticeably high. The overall resident score is 7.2 out of 10. More reviews and all sub-scores can be read on the neighbourhood page of Pijnacker Noord.
Those who compare Pijnacker Noord with the rest of the district Pijnacker will notice that it is quieter and somewhat more modest in appearance. Neighbourhoods like Koningshof and Tolhek have a different character and sometimes a higher average property value. Pijnacker Noord has its own, somewhat understated charm: no striking architecture, but a neighbourhood where people have lived comfortably for decades and continue to do so.
Who is a home for sale in Pijnacker Noord interesting for?
Pijnacker Noord particularly appeals to movers and those aged 55 and over who are looking for peace, space and a stable living environment. The average purchase price of nearly €500,000 makes it difficult for first-time buyers, and residents themselves indicate that there are few affordable owner-occupied homes or starter homes available. Supply is limited and bidding wars are common. Those who are flexible in terms of property type or neighbourhood can also look at rental homes in Pijnacker Noord as a temporary alternative, or compare with the broader supply of homes for sale in Pijnacker-Nootdorp. During viewings, keep in mind the construction period: homes from the 1970s sometimes require insulation or maintenance investments.

Auto-translated to English by AIFriendly people. No nuisance. Many amenities and good accessibility by public transport and car. Unfortunately, many roundabouts where cars don't pay much attention to cyclists. Safety is very adequate. Groundwater is sometimes noticeably high, as the drains can smell. 8/10 would recommend living here as a young family or elderly person.
Auto-translated to English by AIYes, it's very quiet so no noise nuisance, which is good, but sometimes there are show-offs with big cars that drive fast through the streets and you can hear that extremely loudly.
