House prices and market figures for Te Werve, Rijswijk

Living in Te Werve, Rijswijk

Te Werve is a compact, mixed urban neighbourhood in the southeast of Rijswijk, built in the 1960s and 1970s. The neighbourhood consists largely of porch flats, gallery flats and terraced houses from that period, interspersed with some larger semi-detached houses. Green space is a striking strong point: the proximity of the Te Werve estate and the surrounding park area gives the neighbourhood a more airy character than you might expect at first glance. Residents give green space a score of 9.2 out of 10, and that is no surprise once you cycle through it.

In terms of atmosphere, Te Werve is a lively neighbourhood with a diverse population. The largest group of residents is 25 to 45 years old, but there are also many children and families. Resident Chairo describes it aptly: "It is a nice neighbourhood to live in, friendly people and nice neighbours, lots of children, everyone talks, there is always something going on and it is never quiet." Charlie van der Helm adds that the neighbourhood feels safe and is ideal for families, with schools within walking distance. That combination of liveliness and safety (residents give safety an 8.5) makes Te Werve attractive for young families.

For daily shopping, you hardly need to leave the neighbourhood. There are supermarkets and small shops in the immediate vicinity, and the centre of Rijswijk with the In de Bogaard shopping centre is easily accessible by bicycle. Schools score high in resident reviews (9.0), which matches the presence of several primary schools within walking distance. Sports clubs and playgrounds for children are present in and around the neighbourhood, partly thanks to the green area around the estate.

Accessibility is downright strong: residents give this a 9.8 out of 10. Tram stops and bus connections link Te Werve to the broader network towards The Hague and Delft. For those travelling by car, the connection to the A4 and A13 motorways can be reached within minutes. The Hague Central Station is accessible within twenty minutes by public transport. More information about the neighbourhood, all resident reviews and the complete district data can be found on the neighbourhood main page of Te Werve.

Compared to neighbouring municipalities such as Julianapark and Huis te Lande, Te Werve has a slightly more urban character, but also a stronger green feel and a livelier street scene. Those looking for more peace and space in the wider area can also look at the other owner-occupied homes in Wijk 04. Less positive are residents about the appearance of the neighbourhood (beauty scores 6.5) and the level of facilities (6.5). The neighbourhood is functional, but not exactly a showpiece in terms of architecture or local shopping. More information about living and life in the municipality can be found on the website of the municipality of Rijswijk.

Does an owner-occupied home in Te Werve suit you as a buyer?

Te Werve is primarily interesting for young families and first-time buyers who want to buy in the Rijswijk market without immediately paying the highest municipal prices. The average transaction price of over €409,000 is indeed above the WOZ value, but is lower than in many other Rijswijk neighbourhoods. Keep in mind that supply is limited: with 31 sales in a year, the market is tight, and overbidding is not uncommon. Those who are flexible can also look at the rental homes in Te Werve as an interim solution. Movers looking for space can occasionally find larger homes here, but must be patient.
